I finally got the password part working.
Made the following changes to sshutils.c
194c194
< seen = expect(fd, 120.0,
---
> seen = expect(fd, 5.0,
196c196
< "please try again.", /* 2 */
---
> "Password:", /* 2 */
207c207
< sleep(5);
---
> /* sleep(5); */
216c216
< break;
---
> die(_("Unknown Failure Restarting\n"));
The block in more readable form
seen = expect(fd, 5.0,
SENTINEL, /* 1 */
"Password:", /* 2 */
"Permission denied", /* 3 */
"password has expired", /* 4 */
NULL);
if (seen == 1) {
fprintf(ldmlog, "Saw sentinel. Logged in successfully\n");
return 0;
} else if (seen == 2) {
set_message(_("<b>Password incorrect.</b>"));
if (!ldminfo.autologin)
bzero(ldminfo.password, sizeof ldminfo.password);
/* sleep(5); */
die(_("User failed password. Restarting\n"));
} else if (seen == 3) {
fprintf(ldmlog, "User %s failed password 3 times\n",
ldminfo.username);
set_message(_("<b>Login failed!</b>"));
sleep(5);
die(_("User failed login. Restarting\n"));
} else
die(_("Unknown Failure Restarting\n"));
}
I do not think you can ever get to 3 as it restarts after every failure.
Why is it 120 seconds??
ssh when it fails responds with "Password:" not "please try again."
Put a die in the else part.
Why all the dies?
It seems strange too have to reload ldm because of a password failure.
Backports seems just too broken.
I'm going to try switching my efforts to lenny on the terminals.
It acts like the same sshutils.c problems are in lenny.
I need to set up a lenny development environment as I need to stick to
etch on my servers for quite a while.
