[gentoo-user] ssh problem (No such file or directory)

2005-06-15 Thread Travis Osterman
On my recent gentoo install, I can't get past the password prompt when
trying to log into the box via ssh.

$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] (password: and hangs)
$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] bash --login --noprofile -i (works)

/var/log/messages
Jun 14 20:13:37 spot sshd[10366]: error: openpty: No such file or directory
Jun 14 20:13:37 spot sshd[10366]: error: session_pty_req: session 0 alloc failed

Thanks in advance for any tips/help.

I searched for you:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=enq=%22error%3A+openpty%3A+No+such+file+or+directory%22

Do you have CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS and CONFIG_DEVPTS_FS in the kernel config?

gzcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS
gzcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIG_DEVPTS_FS

[SOLVED]

Thanks for helping to narrow my search.  I had been focusing on devpts
(which my kernel wasn't giving me an option for, but once I checked
the unix98 pty stuff, it came up for selection.

After compilation, all is well.  Thank you.
