hmmm,
i didn't know about the 'vv' bit, that's cool!
however:
D: install: running %pre script(s) (if any)
+ /usr/share/rpm-helper/add-user openssh 1 sshd /var/empty /bin/true
1:openssh-server D: ========= Directories not explictly included in
package:
D: 0 /etc/pam.d/
D: 1 /etc/rc.d/init.d/
D: 2 /etc/ssh/
D: 3 /usr/lib/ssh/
D: 4 /usr/sbin/
D: 5 /usr/share/man/man5/
D: 6 /usr/share/man/man8/
D: 7 /var/
(i don't know what output may be significant) and i still get:
[root@mycroft bascule]# service sshd restart
Stopping sshd: [FAILED]
Starting sshd:Privilege separation user sshd does not exist
[FAILED]
running:
[root@mycroft bascule]# /usr/share/rpm-helper/add-user openssh 1 sshd
/var/empty /bin/true
gives no messages but i still get the above error on starting sshd
makes me think that perhaps the problem is not the rpm installation?

All Hell hadn't been let loose. It was merely Detritus. But from a few feet
away you couldn't tell the difference.
