Hi,

After successfully using the ALFS on the LiveCD to install a LFS system, i'm trying to install the SSH-Daemon - but I can't.

I have installed the OpenSSL-0.9.8 with:

./config --prefix=/usr/local

Then I install OpenSSH-4.2p1 with:

groupadd sshd
useradd -g sshd sshd

LIBS="-ldl" ./configure --with-md5-passwords --sysconfdir=/etc/sshd --without-zlib-version-check

The installation goes fine, and I can start the sshd damon:

/usr/local/sbin/sshd -Dddd

When trying to connect from another computer I get asked if I want to add this host to the list of knows hosts. After answering yes the connection is closed, instead of asking me for a password.

I have tried several different things to solve it.

   Installing older version of OpenSSL-0.9.7g
   Installing older version of OpenSSH-4.1p1
   Enabled MD5 passwords in login.defs
   Converted to shadow passwords (pwconv and grpconv)
   Changed the root passwords so it would be MD5 encrypted.
   Installed OpenSSH and SSHD user, acording to the BLFS description
If I install LFS manualy (Not using ALFS) I have no problem installing and using the SSHD daemon.

That's because LFS-6.1 and ALFS includes a broken version of glibc. The issue has been raised several times on the LFS and non-LFS lists, but was never solved (although the patch was known!) before glibc-2.3.5 entered the SVN.
