Craig, As your earlier post is the key.
>>When I try the "svi sshd restart" command I get: "Priviledge separation >>user sshd does not exist". Thank you for your help. As I told you earlier follow the instructions at : http://leaf.sourceforge.net/devel/jnilo/packages/openssh-3.4p1/README.txt This link tells you EXACTLY how to fix this!!! READ IT!!! Here, I'll paste the pertinent section for you <g>: >Installation instructions for LEAF/Bering (version up to and including rc3): > >This version of sshd runs under privilege separation. A sshd user must be created. > >1/ Create a sshd user in /etc/passwd > >sh-httpd:x:50:10:shell-script web server:/var/sh-www:/bin/sh >sshd:x:51:65534::/var/run/sshd:/bin/false <--- TO BE INSERTED HERE >alias:x:70:65534:qmail alias:/var/qmail/alias:/bin/sh > >2/ Create a sshd user in /etc/shadow > >sh-httpd:*:10091:0:99999:7::: >sshd:*:10091:0:99999:7::: <--- TO BE INSERTED HERE >alias:*:10091:0:99999:7::: > >3/ Edit /etc/inetd.conf and comment out the ssh line.

They patched ssh to run as a non-root user because of an exploit that was discovered. This was done after RC3 was released so you have to make the correctsion (supposed to be in RC4 when it's released). And yes, you do want to leave the ssh commented out in your inetd.conf file. Please follow these instructions and your SSH should be able to start. If you've already tried these steps and they haven't worked, please say so. Michael >>> "Craig" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 09/04/02 04:25PM >>> Hi folks, It seems I can't ssh to my Bering box because the sshd doesn't start for some reason. I have it declared in my lrpkg.cfg file, and I see it referenced on my display when Bering boots...but apparently it's not starting. When I "ps ax | grep sshd" it just returns me to the prompt, and when I "ps ax" I don't see anything that looks like /usr/sbin/sshd ( in fact, no references to sshd at all). Any suggestions on why the sshd refuses to start? Thank you. Craig ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
