similar to: Is support being removed for ordinary users to run sshd?

OpenSSH 7.5 has just been released. It will be available from the mirrors listed at http://www.openssh.com/ shortly. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. OpenSSH also includes transitional support for the legacy SSH 1.3 and 1.5 protocols that may be enabled at compile-time. Once again, we would like to thank the OpenSSH community

Hi all. As Corinna pointed out, there are some cases where sshd will log some authentications twice when privsep=yes. This can happen on any platform although it seems most obvious on the ones that don't do post-auth privsep. It also occurs when sshd logs to stderr (eg running under daemontools) or when you have a /dev/log in the privsep chroot. The patch below attempts to solve this for

Dear OpenSSH developers, Is there an equivalent ssh_config setting for the command line option ssh -N ... ? I want to connect to a server that doesn't provide an interactive shell but allows for port forwarding only. I'd love to configure this into my ~/.ssh/config as follows: Host foo Hostname ... Port ... User ... LocalForward ...

I've been trying to cut down the size of openssh so I can run it on my Nokia 770. One thing which helps a fair amount (and will help even more when I get '-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections --gc-sections' working) is to have the option of compiling out privilege separation... Is it worth me tidying this up and trying to make it apply properly to the OpenBSD version? Does the openbsd

Hi, I'm unable to get Kerberos4 authentication working with openssh-3.4p1. I'm getting a message that privsep is not available on my platform (Irix 6.5.15) and another message stating that compression and privsep are mutually exclusive. But, ssh decided to turn off compression, I think because of servconf.c. I think it would be more usefull to have compression enabled and disable privsep

Hi all. As most folks on this list will know, OpenSSH 4.3p1 had some problems with login recording under some configurations. This has been resolved in the current tree and we are looking at rolling a 4.3p2 release to address them. For the most part the changes are fixes only; the ChangeLog since 4.3p1 is below in its entirety. There's one other change that is currently still not decided,

OpenBSD tree is heading into a lock and this includes OpenSSH. So we are winding up for a 3.5 release. If we can get people to test the current snapshots and report any problems that would improve the odds that your platform won't be broke for 3.5. Issues I know off of right now. 1. I can't test NeXT. So I TRULY need someone in that community to test for me. Last I heard there was

Hi, OpenSSH 5.9 is almost ready for release, so we would appreciate testing on as many platforms and systems as possible. This release contains a couple of new features and changes and bug fixes. Testing of the new sandboxed privilege separation mode (see below) would be particularly appreciated. Snapshot releases for portable OpenSSH are available from http://www.mindrot.org/openssh_snap/ The

Hello! Please consider including the attached patch in the next release. It allows one to drop privilege separation code while building openssh by using '--disable-privsep' switch of configure script. If one doesn't use privilege separation at all, why don't simply allow him to drop privilege separation support completely? -- Sincerely Your, Dan. -------------- next part

Hi, there's a change made to 4.4p1, which gave some irritation on the Cygwin mailing list. It's a change from 20060907: - (djm) [sshd.c auth.c] Set up fakepw() with privsep uid/gid, so it can be used to drop privilege to; fixes Solaris GSSAPI crash reported by Magnus Abrante; suggestion and feedback dtucker@ NB. this change will require that the privilege separation user must

How about putting it in defines.h instead? includes.h includes netinet/in.h from whence the definition of IPPORT_RESERVED

Hello, there are emerging container services that restrict regular users to launch containers under some random uid for security reasons. If such user needs sshd in their container, they need to turn off `UsePrivilegeSeparation` so that sshd is executed as the current uid and not `root`. I understand that privilege separation [1] is more than changing the process uid. On the other hand, it is

Hello All. Attached is an update to my previous patch to make do_pam_chauthtok and privsep play nicely together. First, a question: does anybody care about these or the password expiration patches? Anyway, the "PRIVSEP(do_pam_hauthtok())" has been moved to just after the pty has been allocated but before it's made the controlling tty. This allows the child running chauthtok to

The next OpenSSH release is close, too. If you want OpenSSH 3.2 to be the best version of OpenSSH, then please test the snapshots. If you like to see new features in future OpenSSH releases, then test the snapshots. If you are running OpenBSD then please test the OpenBSD snapshots. If you are running the portable OpenSSH release then please test the nightly snapshots from

Either this never made it to the list or no one cares about Tru64. This is the last time I'll send this patch to the list. If no one steps up and finishes it or provides me with enough information to fix any remaining bugs (one being complaint that 'ssh site cmd' does not work right). If there is no activity on this for a week. I'll post it to bugzilla and will ignore any

Hi, could somebody be so kind to check in the follwoing patch? It fixes two problems: - contrib/cygwin/Makefile: Installs new docs and stops trying to install RFC.nroff. - contrib/cygwin/ssh-host-config: Fixes a condition which tries to find out if ssh or sshd processes are still running. The old version unfortunately stumbles over user names which contain the substring
