Saying so would be nice I guess, but I don't think it's particularly important.
The current implementation/configuration is that Launchpad's use of the Twisted Conch library explicitly overrides the channelLookup dict to only have 'session'. So when the client tries to open a direct-tcpip channel, Conch consults that dict (via the lookupChannel method), does not find an entry for direct-tcpip, so returns the "unknown channel type" error code. It would be possible for Launchpad to arrange for direct-tcpip to instead return the "adminstratively prohibited" error code, but that's really just cosmetics. Either way the port forwarding request is immediately rejected, just the error text the client prints is different. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/689213 Title: PPA sshd configuration -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
