Hi Richard, I've got a MDK 8.2 install at home that runs my firewall. I had the same problem and found (by poking around ./configure --help) that I needed to compile it with MD5 password support in order for me to log into the machine. Compiling with PAM didn't seem to do anything.
FWIT, this is what I used to configure openssh $ ./configure --with-md5-passwords --with-privsep-user=<-user-> After compiling, installing and changing /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd to point to the new daemon, all was well in sshland. Until I had to remember what I did when I had to upgrade to 3.7.1p1 which you should probably do as well. After that, I wrote it down :) Best regards, David -----Original Message----- From: Ricardo (Tru64 User) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, September 23, 2003 7:52 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] openssh-3.7p1 & Mandy 9.0 Hi ALL, I have a problem with openssh-3.7p1 working on Mandy. It compiles fine, and I perform an install (on /opt/openssh-3.7p1). I can start it fine (link it up to /etc/init.d/..blah blah), so "service ssh restart" starts it OK. Problem is that then no-one can log in. Keeps complaining about bad passwd!! I have openssh-3.6p1 (compiled version) working OK, and I can log in with it, using same password. My problem is that I HAVE to use the latest and greatest out there, and YES, i know Mandrake has released an rpm patch for 3.6p1. But, with our internal scan, anything running a version identified as vulnerable, even if patched, is flagged. So i have always used locally compiled versions of ssh. Anyone else gone past this problem? Longing for a response/idea/suggestion/recommendation only on getting openssh-3.7p1 to work. _Thanks Richard. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
