New OpenSSH giving scp errors?

[Ken Penland_1]

Ok, I installed the latest version of ssh:
OpenSSH_3.7.1p2-pwexp26

and now I have noticed that when I try to scp a file, I get an error:

scp: FATAL: Executing ssh1 in compatibility mode failed (Check that scp1 is in your PATH).
lost connection

couldnt find anything here, but doing a google search I found alot of people saying to install SSH1's scp and name it scp1...well SSH1 is not an option for here, so does anyone know a way around this one?

Might want to try the depots. HP made some fixes and tweaks, thats why it took some time after the initial openssh release.

that is what you had me install today, which fixed a banner issue I was having, but gave me the scp problem ;)

[Steven E. Protter]

Okay, fair enough.

I did not catch the relation because I only read, didn't participate in your thread.

1) Try without the banner. If it works okay you have found a bug. Report it to HP.
2) If its still broken, try running it with the scp -v command, get verbose error output and post it.

Also:

swverify \* make sure the depot installation is okay.

If you still have the open source compiled version on your system, remove it.

swinstall -x reintall=true -s /full_path_of_depot \*

Try again.

This message triggers my pea brain molecules because of the PATH warning.

LOL

ssh -q works to stop the banner, but scp -q does not ;)

here is the output of the scp -v...I will go ahead and try to re-install it tomorrow, I am getting out of here while I still can!

reinstalling the depot didnt fix, I am going to open up a tkt with the HP folks

[Ken Penland_1]

for anyone else's referance, if you install the latest openSSH depot, and you have other systems that happen to have F-Secure running on it, there is an incompatibility between the two, so you will not be able to scp from openssh to f-secure...HP provided me with this link:

Ken,

I would of chimed in with "did you follow the install instructions?"

We had the old version from HP and had to update a number of systems to get it up to Patch level standards for the new version of SSH. We were having intermitten problems with SCP and SSH refusing connection and found that it pointed to the version we were using. Glad you found out what the problem was.

And 3.7.1p2 is not the latest version. At the moment of writing, that is 3.8, released on 24 Feb 2004 (http://www.openssh.com/)

3.7.1p2 is the most recent available on the porting center.

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
