https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=464315 Summary: MaxAuthTries 0 (Zero) denies all logins - used to work on 11.0 and previous versions Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i386 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: abittner@stud.fh-heilbronn.de QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- hi there, just figured that the parameter
MaxAuthTries 0
in /etc/ssh/sshd_config denies all ssh logins with username/password as credentials. this used to work just fine on my 11.0 system which i upgraded to this 11.1 x86 version. I set MaxAuthTries 0 many releases ago, when this feature was implemented in openssh, and i read in many articles and documentations to set it to zero so that only exactly one login should be allowed for ssh access. wondering why i need
MaxAuthTries 1 now to get the same effect.
bug? or is it me who is understanding this all wrong? thanks. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
