Guillaume Nodet resolved SSHD-255.
----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 0.10.0
Assignee: Guillaume Nodet
The problem is that we were ignoring the requests instead of sending FAILURE if
want-reply is set.
Fixed with
https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=mina-sshd.git;a=commitdiff;h=49ba56e1a39c085ce7cf34f39d361b07f6c2bf46;hp=46ea09302ec1556b95474ae36337369e9c973c36
> sshd does not (always?) reply to requests setting 'want reply'
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SSHD-255
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SSHD-255
> Project: MINA SSHD
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.5.0, 0.6.0
> Environment: Seen w/ Gerrit (http://gerrit.googlecode.com) running
> via Tomcat 7 & Oracle JDK 7 on CentOS 6.x x86_64. Client was TortoiseGit
> using PuTTY 0.63 for SSH transport. Gerrit 2.5.x uses sshd 0.5.1, Gerrit
> 2.7.x uses sshd 0.6.0.
> Reporter: Will Saxon
> Assignee: Guillaume Nodet
> Fix For: 0.10.0
>
>
> Upon upgrading to PuTTY 0.63, a developer was unable to fetch changes from
> Gerrit projects if there were lots of outstanding changes (>200). The fetch
> would hang.
> After consulting w/ the TortoiseGIT and PuTTY developers, it was determined
> that the hangs occurred as PuTTY was sending several SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST
> 'winadj' messages with the 'want reply' flag set. sshd is not replying to
> these requests and PuTTY is blocking on the reply, leading to a perceived
> 'hang' by the user.
> I don't have a copy of the entire email exchange, but it reads like the SSH
> standard indicates replies should only be sent when 'want reply' is true, but
> sshd always sends replies for requests it understands and never sends replies
> for requests it does not, regardless of the value of 'want reply'.
