sshd login stalling
Okay I cant seem to figure out why sshd logins are stalling. I see that I am coming from an IP address that does not have Reverse mapping. So I added the lines below to /usr/local/etc/ssh/sshd_config and /etc/ssh is sym linked to /usr/local/etc/ssh --- snip --- lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel18 Sep 4 23:01 ssh - /usr/local/etc/ssh UseDNS no VerifyReverseMapping no snip --- cheers, Noah ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Is there a setting there for your local IP other than localhost 127.0.0.1?

My understanding is /usr/local/etc is for local specific configurations so that a site specific configuration in /etc can be loaded and appended by the stuff in /usr/local/etc. Wouldn't symlinking one to the other force the same config files to be loaded twice??? And if so wouldn't that possibly confuse the daemon? Maybe I'm not entirely clear on how all that works myself. but my understanding is /etc is read first and then appended by /usr/local/etc. Although I can see how this would allow NFS to be used on diskless clients using generic /etc while allowing system specific configurations to be stored elsewhere and linked in as needed. I am just under the impression that /usr/local/etc is not for this purpose. of course I'm not the brightest tool in the shed... -brian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Well currently if I am coming from an IP address the has reverse mapping then things work fine there is no stalling whatsoever. When I removed the sym link between /etc/ssh and /usr/local/etc/ssh things work fine now. these is still stalling experienced when coming from an machine with a non-reverse mapped IP. other clues? cheers, Noah -brian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Is this problem only with sshd or do all daemons have trouble with a host that doesn't do reverse-lookups? Perhaps the IP stack is just blocking the packets coming in from non-fully qualified hosts. -brian ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
