However, I'm interested that it occurred following a libc6.1 upgrade. What version of libc6.1 did you have beforehand? -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

reassign 241996 ssh severity 241996 important merge 23 241996 thanks On Sun, Apr 04, 2004 at 05:56:18PM +0200, Ronny Vaningh wrote: I was quite sure that I saw libc mentioned as an updated package some days ago ... I keep the box up to date with apt quite regulary The funky thing is that I upgraded the kernel to the 2.4.25 (-1-generic as packaged) and that this seemed to solve my ssh problem as well. Yes, that's not surprising at all. The problem is ssh not coping gracefully with the setresuid() and setresgid() system calls being missing, and they aren't missing in 2.4.25. I was wondering why this failure seemed to be new, but the use of setres[ug]id() is new in OpenSSH 3.7, which would explain it. I bet the upgrade you noticed also included an upgrade from ssh 3.6-* to 3.8-*. Normally I'd request that glibc provide compatibility stubs, but I don't think that's possible for setres[ug]id(), so ssh just has to deal with it. We have another box with the same architecture (norritake) running testing and had no problems with the ssh on the box, but this one was already running a 2.4 kernel for a long time I know this is not what I would call sufficient info ... sorry Oh well; thanks anyway.
