Hi,
We've talked about this and feel it isn't something we have the resources to maintain. Please put this bug in with The Upstream Vendor (RedHat).

I'm sorry.

Hi, there is a bug in SL5's openssh client which is introduced by RetHat's openssh-4.3p2-gssapi-canohost.patch, if you use Kerberos5 authentication in
conjunction with the "ProxyCommand" option.

To verify the bug run

 ssh -v -o "ProxyCommand nc %h %p" -o "PasswordAuthentication no" -o
"PubkeyAuthentication no" -o "GSSAPIAuthentication yes"  $HOST "echo work
s"

on a host which allows login with a Kerberos5 ticket.

On SL5 openssh fails with [...]
debug1: Next authentication method: gssapi-with-mic
debug1: An invalid name was supplied
Hostname cannot be canonicalized
[...]

With a vanilla build of openssh this command succeeds.

The fedora project already uses a fixed version of th
openssh-4.3p2-gssapi-canohost.path

http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/openssh/devel/openssh-4.3p2-gssa
pi-canohost.patch?sortdir=down&view=log

Could you backport the fixed patch to the SL5 openssh packages?

Cheers,
  Jörgen Samson
