: My first problem (and the two might be related) deals with
: tcp_wrappers/ssh2.0.11 compatibility. Tcp_wrappers is not logging the ssh
: connections. I compiled ssh using --with-libwrap and I've edited
: inetd.conf to include the following:
:
: #
: ssh2 stream tcp nowait root /usr/etc/tcpd
: /usr/sbin/sshd2
: #
Tcp-wrappers ain't logging your connection, because this line means,
that everytime a connection comes to the ssh-port, it starts the
daemon to the background to handle the connection. This daemon,
however, doesn't die when the connection has ended, because sshd2
isn't in inetd-mode. You have to supply sshd2 the "-i" command-line
parameter. So, your inetd.conf line would look like this:
ssh2 stream tcp nowait root /usr/etc/tcpd /usr/sbin/sshd2 -i
Now sshd2 is started in inetd-mode.
: Second, each time I exit a ssh session, it hangs on "logout", creating a
: defunct process on the remote machine. I've read that there might be
: problems (bugs?) in ssh2.x.x that cause this when compiled with libwrap.
: Is this the case?
This is a known problem with sshd2 compiled with libwrap, but we've
yet been unable to reproduce this problem. It would be _very_ nice if
someone could send a detailed report on the configuration and, if
possible, a debugger backtrace on the situation (by attaching to the
hung process as root).
It would help much.
