Secure Shell (ssh2) install on 11.0

[Stephen Sneeringer]

Do I have to use only the HP C / ANSI C compiler for this package. I've tried using /usr/bin/cc with no success.

We tried using gcc but issues with make . had problems like unresolved symbol ..

So best bet would be aCC. Though not sure if that would work either. please let us know.

Hello!

I've compiled ssh2 (commercial version 2.1.0) using HP's C-ANSI-C compiler and haven't had any trouble.

After unzipping and untarring, I did the following:

./configure -prefix /opt/ssh2
mkdir /opt/ssh2
make
make install
/opt/ssh2/sbin/sshd2

As I recall, there is a FastStart (?) document of some sort that clearly described the procedure required to enable user authentication and some of the other features.

You can compile it with gcc just get the latest version of that as well as binutils. I didnt have too many problems.

[Madanagopalan S]

I did the following on my machine .

tar zxvf ssh-2.2.x.tar.gz

./configure
make
make install

ansic is already installed on our server.

The reason you had problems with cc is it's really only used for recompiling the kernel - it's practically useless for anything else!

[Stephen Sneeringer]

Well heres where I'm at....
I've gotten the gcc compiler and other related packages. Now when I try to run the configure file it keeps grabing the cc compiler. I've try setting varables like CC=gcc and GCC=gcc. I've put the opt/gcc/bin & /opt/binutils at the head of the PATH variable. All of this has been to no avail. I looked and search the configur file over and over trying to figure out just where they would grab the gcc compiler.

Any help would be greatly welcome......

Here is what I did to load ssh2 using gcc:
From www.hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux I got the following packages as recommended by Bill Hart -- gcc2.95.2, binutils2.9.1, bison1.28, & flex2.5.4
Bill recommended several patches which I did not need since I had loaded the most current patch release. If you think you might need to patch see Bill's response by seaching the forum for SSH.

After this I needed to download SSH2 version 2.3 You must use this version as previous ones had trouble generating the .pub codekey.

To configure I used the following parameters:

set path to include gcc, binutils, flex, bison, and ssh2
set variable--- CC=gcc

Follow install instructions with these values:
./configure --host=hpp2.0-hp-hpux11.00 --disable-static --enable-debug
make
make install

NOTE: If the install fails and you want to re-compile after changes remember that the file config.cache are the values it will use to re-config. Remove it or modify it with new values.

I hope this info will help.
