similar to: OpenSSH portability & buildsystem fixes

Hello! This is my first post to this list... ;) I'm not shure if someone will be interested in this topic. For me, it has interest, as long as I maintain 100+ unix (linux) servers with dialup access and every package update cost some significant time to download, so package size is somewhat important here. I looked to openssh and realized that package consists of several programs, all uses

Since progressmeter.o has moved to libssh, we don't need to explicitly link it into scp and sftp any longer.

This adds support for systemd socket-based activation in the ssh-agent. When using socket activation, the -a flag value must match the socket path provided by systemd, as a sanity check. Support for this feature is enabled by the --with-systemd configure flag. --- Something tells me upstream would not be interested in this patch, but as it may be useful on linux, I'm submitting it here.

Here is a first patch in a series of similar ones (I hope). This patch is to make -lz used for only those programs that *really* need zlib (namely, ssh and sshd for now). There is no need to load libz.so for ssh-keygen, sftp and others. Related question. It seems ssh's configure script pickups -lnsl on linux -- what for? It is required on solaris, but not on linux. But on solaris, one

Hello, There is a small but annoying problem with linking libwrap in openssh. The library is added to LIBS which makes it be linked in to all binaries. This is unnecessary and leads to bogus dependencies if libwrap is a shared library. Following is a trivial fix that reserves a separate autoconf substitution variable LIBWRAP, which is only used for sshd. Please apply. Maciej -- +

Hi all. Now that we have SSHDLIBS for the libraries required by sshd only, it's possible to remove some of the single-purpose variables from Makefile. If this is worth doing, the next step would probably be to move the OpenSSL libs into CRYPTOLIBS since binaries such as scp and sftp don't need to be linked with libcrypto. Index: Makefile.in

Hello, I hope this is the right place to post this. I added readline support to the sftp client. It adds optional --with-readline parameter for configure to enable this feature. You'll of course need to re-run autoheader and autoconf after applying this patch. It's patched against 3.4p1 but should work with any recent openssh. It works fine for me (GNU/Linux) - feel free to test it and

Hi, I've gone and ported the latest version of openssh, 3.1p1, to GNU/Hurd. I've tried to learn from the other threads on this topic, but I still had to get rid of MAXHOSTNAMELEN where I could.

I'm seeing a linking problem with scp on Solaris 2.6 that I'm not seeing on Linux (Mandrake 8). It boils down to Solaris not having mkdtemp(), and the mkdtemp() compatibility function referencing arc4random(), which calls seed_rng(). Since that function is back in libssh.a, we get a function-not-found link error. I added -lssh after -lopenbsd_compat on scp's build rule (so it is

Hi all! I do not know openssh patch policy so I am just sending the patch to the mailing list. Sorry for inconvenience. Ssh-agent seems to be too slow if you need to access thousands of servers. This is a simple patch to enable threading in ssh2 authentication. Patch adds "-p numthreads" option and defaults to the number of processors. I've tested it as I could, but
