OpenSSH Installation Problem

Chen Yingjie — Wed, 11 Sep 2002 11:10:54 GMT

Dear all

I have a installation problem in OpenSSH 3.4P1

I have to install OpenSSH 3.4p1 in our HP9000 Server.

First of all, I installed Zlib. It was successfully installed.

But when I install OpenSSL,
It shown that I need to install Perl 5.
Then I installed Perl 5.
But it still ask me to install Perl 5.

What is the problem?

Hi Chen,

to your perl problem:
type "perl -v"
If perl says it's version 4 the problem is assumedly your search path.
type "whereis perl"perl 4 stays normaly in /usr/contrib/bin/, perl 5 in /opt/perl5/bin.
If this is the problem, you can do different things:
- change your $PATH variable so that first searching in /opt/perl5/bin
- or create a link to perl 5 in a path searching before /usr/contrib/bin, e.g. "ln -s /opt/perl5/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl"

regards
Dirk

sshd daemon lives in
/opt/ssh/sbin/sshd

Its configuration file is
/etc/rc.config.d/sshd

Starting script is
/sbin/init.d/secsh,
Automatic startup links are /sbin/rc1.d/K393secsh
/sbin/rc2.d/S393secsh

BR,

Hi Chen,

even with the precompiled OpenSSH binaries you usually need to create your system's host keys, and edit sshd_config before you will be able to start up sshd (which sort of makes sense).
You can look for a README or INSTALL file in the doc directory of your OpenSSH installation or consult the manpage of the ssh-keygen command, where the process of creating host keys for your box is outlined.
Usually you have to create 3 host keys for the 3 crypto systems rsa1, rsa, and dsa.
e.g.

/opt/openssh/bin/ssh-keygen -N "" -t rsa1 -b 1024 -f /opt/openssh/etc/ssh_host_rsa1_key

You have to repeat this for rsa, dsa as well.
Adapt the protocol string for -t flag and in output file name, as well as the paths according to your OpenSSH installation target.

Hi Chen

Just to clear confusion. If you are downloading the depot software that has recommanded, you should note that these sofwares are installed in "/usr/local" NOT in "/opt/" directory.
Therefore you should look for them in "/usr/local".

Dear all

Thanks for your advices.
I have completed installation.

Now, I have another question.

I want to ssh/sftp to the ssh server by no passphrase.

I knew it need to use ssh-agent, ssh-add to add the passphrase in the memory.

But it need to type phrase.

Is there any way to add phrase in the memory without typing phrase?

Thanks

Chen
