Re: SSH login banner: IP address instead of DNS name

2003-07-01 Thread Supote Leelasupphakorn
 Hi again. When I SSH into my 4.8 box, the first line of the banner is:
 Last login: Mon Jun 30 19:31:44 2003 from 15-characters-of-a-host-name
 That DNS name is truncated to 15 characters. I would much prefer an 
 IP address. What do I need to change to get this?

You can alter sshd's banner at the directive named Banner
in the file c/sshd/sshd_config.

Cheer,

Run sshd with the -u 15 option.  You can do so by adding this line to
/etc/rc.conf:

sshd_flags=-u 15

 You can alter sshd's banner at the directive named Banner
 in the file c/sshd/sshd_config.

That banner is shown before authentication, which is not what Paul is
talking about.

Perfect, that's exactly what I needed. Thanks!

try sshd_flags=-u0 instead (man sshd)

This will  show only the IP. In addition, this will halt the DNS lookups
