openssh crashes

Zoltan Arpadffy_1 — Tue, 27 Jan 2004 16:53:39 GMT

hi,

I try to run openssh on an
HP-UX hpux B.11.00 A 9000/887 733635152 two-user license.

It runs perfect util first remote connection, hen it crashes - but that badly that whole tcpip stack dies for few minutes. After few minutes tcpip recovers and works normally and sshd core dumped.

I tried to download executables also I build myself, bot has a same behaviour.

Have you seen something like this?
Can "two-user license" restriction make such problems?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,
Z

About the two-user license, not to my knowledge. It refers to the number of users who can log in:

Pardon my lack of knowledge...was this downloaded from HP's site or compiled yourself? Sounds like the latter.

I use the one from HP and haven't had problems:

In addition, as stated, you may want to patch your system. If you have an HP support contract, you can run a patch analysis which will suggest patches for the system (but it can't help you diagnose a problem; you have to read the patch descriptions and choose what to install).

All Licenses on a practical level were upgraded to unlimited years ago. Practically speaking this is not a license issue.

do the ssh command again with the -v command to get more diagnostics.

AT this point i'd take a look at dmesg output or /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log for clues.

I would not try to compile openssh, the depots are meant for HP-UX. I would consider swremoving the software and reinstalling.

Another possible cause:

Trying to bring up a NIC on the same subnet of the ssh server. That crashes the whole network.

Trying to bring up a box of any kind anywhere on the network with an IP address that conflicts with the ssh server will also cause some of these symptoms.

Wide net, sorry, but it could be anything.

Hello,

Cumulative ARPA patch/upgrade solved the problem.

Both HP executables and own build work perfect.

Thank you, in the name of polarhome.com community.
