The recent mgetty upload security fix, and an NMU upload (of mgetty) to
unstable yesterday reminded me of a serious issue we still have to address.
Sometimes, security patches made by the security team (and made available
through security.debian.org) are reverted on mistake by maintainers on the

I just changed it and removed the last ':', and now I get "Permission
denied". This is crazy. I just want to be able to ssh.. that's all. Why is
it so damn weird on Debian.. this is the first time EVER that I had a hard
time setting up ssh, or ANY unix or linux.

Hi, I've just installed my new iptables rules in my debian box, and I've got plenty of
connections from different hosts to port 10...What can it be? I'v searched about port
10 connections, but the only thing I know is that it's unassigned...Any ideas?

No of course not. I checked my sshd_config file, and I definitely would
not allow root to ssh directly.

I'm going to risk my neck and make an obvious suggestion, look for pam-

Okay, this is the final thing, I don't understand these files too well,

Failing all else, SSH should ask you for a password if you have the
server configured to allow this.

you could use seq 1000 to count from 1 to 1000, instead of printing
newlines.

you don't need the reset -Q there. the simple act of changing VCs
clears the scrollback history.

Actually, I have commented that line out initially when I first looked at
