Hello, A colleague tells me:
| There appears to be a bug in XOS switches that mean that if you try and | ssh to them from a machine running openssh 4.7 or higher (this is the | default on lenny) then you will fail to connect with a message "channel | 0: open failed: resource shortage: Channel open failed". | | This is down to an increase in the window size available in the ssh | client. I've made a patched version of the openssh 5.1 binary which | reduces the window size back to the pre openssh 4.7 size (4k rather | than 64k). | | The work around is to change the advertised window size back to 4 from | 64k in channels.h | | 151c151 | < #define CHAN_SES_WINDOW_DEFAULT (64*CHAN_SES_PACKET_DEFAULT) | --- | > #define CHAN_SES_WINDOW_DEFAULT (4*CHAN_SES_PACKET_DEFAULT) | 153c153 | < #define CHAN_TCP_WINDOW_DEFAULT (64*CHAN_TCP_PACKET_DEFAULT) | --- | > #define CHAN_TCP_WINDOW_DEFAULT (4*CHAN_TCP_PACKET_DEFAULT) I've asked him to report the bug to Extreme too.
