the problem seems to be fixed in 9.1 so go ahead ALBERTO D SCOTTI schrieb:

Hi, on my opteron box running 64-bit SLES8 I have been using a 32-bit version of the sshd (OpenSSH_3.6.1p2) without any problem. The reason for that choice was that the 64 bit version did not work well with the PAM AFS modules...

Hope this helps

hi there...

i recently experienced some weird things with latest openssh and different ssh linux clients

if i connect or scp to my server (AMD64 Suse 9.0) from different Suse 8.2/9.0 clients with no given username (so the current username of the user, who executes ssh on his client is used) everything works fine

if i give a username (user@server or -l user - no matter with or without pubkey) i get

Have a lot of fun... connection closed

in the logs i see something like

Apr 15 19:01:05 nevanpdc sshd[2902]: Accepted keyboard-interactive/pam for root from ::ffff:192.168.0.1 port 49435 ssh2 Apr 15 19:01:05 nevanpdc kernel: sshd[2905]: segfault at 0000002a00000000 rip 0000002a966b5870 rsp 0000007fbfffe218 error 4

normally it should work ?!?!?

is it a known problem? strange is: after a reboot it works for some time, until somebody tries a connection with pubkey to an other account then his own (e.g. root) then i get seg fault and after this the problems as described above start

thx micha
