ssh pam and tcp_wrappers

Aaron Sheard — Fri, 05 Jul 2002 15:38:49 GMT

I have successfully upgraded to ssh3.4, and have changed the startup to use inetd.conf with tcp_wrappers.

My problem now is, I can ssh to the host with the root account, but any other user accounts fail, and the message in syslog is:

fatal: PAM session setup failed[33]: General Commercial Security error

what i can't understand is it works for root but no one else.. has anyone had this problem? I am running 11i "trusted system"

Todd,

You will need to apply this patch. Copy this to the apache source directory and and run patch -p1 < diff.ossh.

Then compile.

Sorry. Forgot the attachment. As well replace "apache" with "openssh".

Do I include the diff command at the top of the file?

No, the patch command will take care of it.

How did you compile this after loading the fix? I have the same problem and am trying to fix it. Thanks for the assistance.
