Re: [Tigervnc-devel] Patch to integrate libssh

[Robert Goley]

I had the same problem in similar testing I have done.  OpenSSH does not return an error code for port bind failures.  If someone knows of a way to do this without opening ssh in a pipe and parsing the output, I would like to hear it too....  This was my main reason in suggesting something like libssh.  Using it guaranteed getting the detailed error status and being able to act on it by requesting another port etc. On 02/14/2011 05:02 PM, Eric Stadtherr wrote: Do you know of a way to check for the successful bind? One of the behaviors that drove me down the libssh path was that /usr/bin/ssh happily continues running despite failing to bind to the local port. Therefore there is no exit status to interrogate for success/failure. Can you think of a different way to check for successful bind? -- Robert Goley FOSS Implementation Specialist Toll Free: (800) 338-4984 Local: (770) 479-7933 Fax: (770) 479-4076 www.openrda.com America's only Free & Open Source fund accounting software company.
