Xrsh?

1998-02-16 Thread Will Lowe
I need to use xrsh to connect to some hosts at a university where ssh
isn't installed.  Is there a debian-compatible version around anyplace?

Check out the ssh package (at your favorite nonUS site). It might do
what you want.

Hi,
Is there a debian package with xrsh, the remote shell for X?

Thanks,

Tim.

I had problems with broken ssh connections (modem to home)
when sending X applications through the connection.  It went
away when I turned on the compression flag to ssh.  I have not
tried xv, though.  Otherwise, I have no troubles with ssh (and
it makes life so much easier).  I would emphatically suggest to
everyone to start using it.

Well,  the problem is that I don't have root access on the machines I'm
trying to rlogin to,  so I have no way of configuring them to accept my
ssh connections.  

Any suggestions about getting around this?

That's  hmm. interesting :) Have you tried running ssh with the
verbose flag (-v) on? That way you can see which version of ssh
and ssh protocol the local and remote end are using.

Here's an excerpt from the ssh faq:

  5.21 Ssh suddenly drops connections!

  This is a problem which has been reported by several people for
  SunOS 4, Solaris 2, Linux, and HP-UX 9 and 10, with 1.2.16 and
  1.2.17. It happens with scp, when transferring large amounts of
  data via ssh's stdin, or when forwarding an X connection which
  receives a large amount of graphics data (such as a MPEG movie).

  [rest of the answer including the patch cut]

The current released version is 1.2.20, the location of faq is

Then something must have been wrong. I run xv (and fvwm2, emacs, xterm,
whatever) regularly under ssh.

Unfortunatelly I had trouble with ssh... the X connections are forwarded
through the ssh channel, encrypted... and sometimes they get broken.
For example I was unable to run an xv through an ssh connection, xv exited
with "server kill" or something like that immediatelly :(

How about using ssh? Since I switched to ssh I have not had any need to 
do those
'xauth extract - $DISPLAY | rsh otherhost xauth merge -' tricks anymore.

Ssh crypts the connection and as an extra bonus automagically sets 
DISPLAY and xauth authorization records during the login process.

Ssh is in the non-US part of the distribution, see the README.non-US 
file in the ftp mirrors.

Sorry I couldn't help with xrsh.

That last sentence should have "xrsh" in place of "xauth".

Sorry about the confusion.

Do we have support for xrsh?  I'm trying to automate xclient/xauth stuff
amongst my 4 accounts,  some of which are on Sparc machines,  and one of
which is on my linux box.  

A search for "xauth" from the "package search" page didn't turn up
anything.
