[Michael Schulte zur Sur]

Hi,

I use openssh from reflection and I get the following error in syslog. Login works.

Is this known?

Thanks,Michael

Hi michael,

Which version do you use of openssh.
I had also this problem and it was solved by getting the newest version of openssh.
I used putty instead of reflection.

grtz. Mark

Previous thread link is pointing towards a problem with openssh + cde based login. Are you using terminal based or GUI based login.

Is the version of openssh 11.0.122 correct? May be older one. Try to install new one available as,

Muthukumar,

this openssh is part of the reflection terminal emulation.
