Re: Qual é o pacote que fica o ssh no Woody ?
apt-get install ssh ? Sempre que quiser procurar um pacote que contenha algo que deseja faça assim: dpkg -l *coisa-desejada* No caso do ssh: dpkg -l *ssh* E para achar pacotes relacionados: apt-cache search ssh Isso vale para outros pacotes!

SSH de woody no hace caso del umask
La cuestion es la siguiente, he actualizado el servidor de ssh a la version 3.0.2p1-9 y los clientes usan el mindterm para enviar ficheros al servidor, pero ahora todos los ficheros nuevos se crean con permisos 600. La nueva version no hace caso del umask? Las versiones viejas si tenian una directiva Umask para usar en el sshd_config, pero ahora no funciona. ¿Que puedo hacer, para que los usuarios (no iniciados en linux) no tengan que ir cambiando los privilegios a mano? -- Jordi Román Mejias e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Servei d' Informatica DistribuidaEscola Universitaria de Sabadell Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi, Not sure exactly what's going on here, maybe you just have some config option specifying this in sshd_config, but, according to the release notes on openssh.org, for version 3.0 of openssh, authorized_keys2 is now depracated in favor of authorized_keys.

Cannot ssh from woody -- slink
Hi I have a slink-based machine (running the Linux Router Project, actually) that I use as a server, and a workstation I dual-boot with Win NT and Debian woody. I can ssh to the server from (1) itself, using ssh 1.2.26 (2) my workstation in Win NT (using SecureCRT) (3) my wife's Win NT machine, using SecureCRT I can also ssh from the server to the workstation. However, using the latest binaries, I cannot ssh to the server from my workstation running woody. The IP is the same in WinNT mode as in Linux, so there's no firewall on the server preventing this. If I run ssh -v myserver, I see (as best I can recall) something like this: Connecting to myserver [192.168.1.1] port 22. Allocated local port 1023. Connection closed. -- Here are some things I have tried: (1) Both ssh-nonfree and openssh packages (2) Removing and regenerating /etc/ssh/ (3) Removing ~/.ssh (4) Attempting to ssh from a newly created user ID (5) Removing known_hosts from the server (6) Running the server's sshd in debug mode (with -d flag) When I ran sshd in debug mode, it died when I tried to connect from the workstation, with a complaint about not forking in debug mode. Fair enough, perhaps. So, I am now completely stumped! The fundamental issue, I suppose, is why can I ssh in from WinNT, but not from Debian? Has anybody else got a theory as to why this might be happening? Help! Yours, Brian
