hi tobias, hi all
seems You are pritty much into openSSH. i'm starting going into right now, so i've got some questions, too. I startet directly with the sources of openSSL and openSSH, compiled them and tried to connect from Windows Clients with different tools (for example the Windows-tools by F-SECURE). Now what happend is, i can connect only by ssh, but NOT by scp - which is - as far as i understand -, is different from sftp, and for that reason should work with openSSH.
There are some minor glitches in the scp program - one of them has been
fixed in SuSE-7.0's version of the ssh package (it's about the client scp
reading junk at the beginning of the connection from the shell started on
the remote side and not obeying to the own protocol. Seems that the same
paroblem also exists on the sending side...). Those problems never got
fixed because usually only tcsh users notice them.
openssh's scp program may suffer from the same defects.
The problems as mentioned are not security related.
Thanks,
Roman.
