Updating OpenSSH

2008-05-17 Thread Kahlil Johnson
As many people know Debian distros have been having issues with SSH
and it's keys. Have there been any process to update on the tablets?
Anyone know a good tutorial and if the patched versions are available? thanks.

 The problem was that extras is a non-existent component in

 The latest version seems to abort the apt-get update process and

 just the one with the bogus extra component.

Hmm, that is unexpected.  There shouldn't be any change in the
behavior in this area.

If you feel like it, could you experiment a bit with apt-get update in
the shell and Refresh list of applications in the Application
Manager UI?

To get a clean slate, do

   # rm /var/lib/apt/lists/*

After that, both apt-get update and Refresh list of applications
_should_ get you back into a useable state and should ignore
non-existing distributions or components.

You can review detailed messages with Tools  Log in the Application
Manager.  (Upcoming versions of the Application Manager will be more
helpful with debugging catalogue configurations.)

If you have ssh server and xterm installed, you can:
- run xterm
- ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- cp  /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.oryg
- add all repositories you want or copy from internet ready file
- or if you have already extended version: cp
/etc/apt/sources.list.extended /etc/apt/sources.list
- apt-get update
Usually if something is wrong with repositories sites/files/keys  it
shows some error and it helps with further investigation.

I think the one click Install adds the required repository, then bombs on the 
actual installation because it isn't compatible with the Application Manager 
for some reason.

What I did was click on the OpenSSH Install file to add the repository, exited 
from App Manager once I saw the install had failed, opened xterm, sudo 
gainroot, apt-get install ssh. Job done.

The OpenSSH install file on maemo.org should work when you are in 
red-pill mode, which will allow you to install non-user packages.  At 
least, that's how I did it.

 http://hildon-app-mgr.garage.maemo.org/redpill.html
 
 You likely want the Show all packages setting.  Otherwise, the AM
 considers openssh to be a system package and wont let you install it.

I built a small user-installable package that depends on openssh:
http://mg.pov.lt/770/dists/bora/user/binary-armel/openssh-installer_0.1-1_armel.deb
(and 
http://mg.pov.lt/770/dists/mistral/user/binary-armel/openssh-installer_0.1-1_armel.deb)

You don't need the red-pill mode to install it, and it will pull in ssh,
but, but you need to have the maemo reporsitory configured.
http://mg.pov.lt/770/maemo-repository.install

There are downsides to my approach:
 * if you remove openssh-installer, the ssh package will most likely
   stay installed
 * it is impossible to write a single-click .install file for it,
   because it depends on packages from two different repositories.

The best solution for OpenSSH would be to build a package (or, better
yet, separate packages for openssh-client and openssh-server) with
section user/something (user/tools?) and upload those into Maemo Extras.

I don't have the energy to work on that :(

  ServerAliveInterval 3

Ssh is pinging the nokia device every three seconds so that the wlan
interface on the nokia 770 won't be shut down.

 I installed OpenSSH on my 770 this afternoon, dropped my public key in

 some time, the SSH session freezes. I can't type anything in. To fix it
 I have to tap the 770's screen a bit and type into the SSH session. Then
 it seems to wake up from it's catnap. Any ideas what's causing this and
 what to do about it? I thought it might be some sort of powersaving
 thing, and it might be, but it still happens with the AC adapter plugged
 in.

The problem, if you want to call it as such at all, is that there is
some agressive power saving taking place. If there is no traffic on the
wifi for some time the wifi device is simply shut down (at least that is
the effect you see).
If you have constant traffic, like the ping mentioned in another post,
then the interface does not shut down and thus keeps working.

A nice enhancement to this respect for a next Maemo release would be a
configurable timeout, or an en- disable switch. Or even better if just
the sender of the Wifi would be switched off so that it would still
receive incoming packages...

Yes.  Since I've installed the upgrade, I'm experiencing the same.  To
overcome this, I'm always starting a ping to my router in the
background when I intend to use ssh, scp and the like.
