Has anyone else seen this problem? Similar problems here . but with slink. As a workaround I commented out the server entry in yp.conf. Now it seems to work but at boot time the sparc box has to broadcast for the server :-/ Steffan

Download and install the libgmp2 from http://xia01.kachinatech.com/~bcollins/ and everything will be ok. I'll try to get an NMU uploaded today. Ben
Problems with the new ssh package.
Hi, I've just upgraded the ssh packages and the dependant ones (ssh version 1.2.27-2) to our debian potato (sparc). The problem is: if i do ssh to the server it works fine, but if i want to ssh to a _remote_ host from the server it fails. I did an ssh -v host from the sparc server and got: k2:~ $ ssh -v hostname SSH Version 1.2.27 [sparc-unknown-linux], protocol version 1.5. Standard version. Does not use RSAREF. k2: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config k2: ssh_connect: getuid 1000 geteuid 0 anon 0 k2: Connecting to hostname [ip] port 22. k2: Allocated local port 1023. k2: Connection established. k2: Remote protocol version 1.5, remote software version 1.2.26 k2: Waiting for server public key. k2: Received server public key (2048 bits) and host key (1024 bits). k2: Host 'helka.iif.hu' is known and matches the host key. k2: Initializing random; seed file /md0/home/dolgozo/bra/.ssh/random_seed k2: Encryption type: idea k2: Sent encrypted session key. Connection closed by remote host. While from another machine it works fine... Do anybody know the answer? Thanks. ps: the problem is not from the big (2048 bit) public key, i tried with another host and got the same. --- Attila Nagy \ Phone: (361)-210-1415/194 System Administrator \ Kalman Kando Technical \ iRC: bra on iRCNET College Budapest, Hungary \ Info: 'finger [EMAIL PROTECTED]'

Pretty much > everything else on this Sun works great (much faster than Solaris!). Same problem over here with a Sun IPC NIS client trying to connect to an SGI IRIX 6.4 NIS server: ypbind hangs. I've tried to supply the NIS domain and the NIS server in /etc/yp.conf, but with the same result. After putting an "exit" at the first line of /etc/init.d/nis I was able to boot properly, but without NIS. Starting ypbind by hand sometimes helps when you start it twice: the second ypbind process is sometimes able to communicate with the server. Erik -- J.A.K.
