RE: [SLE] Compiling SSH from ssh.org on Pro 9.3
by Napp, Julie A. 10 Aug '05

10 Aug '05

SuSE comes with OpenSSH, and we use the version from SSH.org on everything else in the dept. We'd have to shift to publickey authentication for our automated connections (we have tons of rsync scripts that use ssh on lots of different systems and as lots of different users), which would be a significant effort. Getting the SSH.org version running properly is a much more desirable solution. ----- Julie > -----Original Message----- > From: Ken Schneider [mailto:suse-list@bout-tyme.net] > Sent: Tuesday, August 09, 2005 5:53 PM > To: suse-linux-e(a)suse.com > Subject: Re: [SLE] Compiling SSH from ssh.org on Pro 9.3 > > On Tue, 2005-08-09 at 17:43 -0400, Napp, Julie A. wrote: > > I'm new to this list, so forgive me if this has been > > discussed before... > > > > My shop uses SSH 3.2.9.1 from SSH.org as the dominant > > ssh client/server, and when I compile it on SuSE Pro 9.3 > > with gcc (v. 3.3.5 20050117, the default), there are no > > errors, but when I try to ssh to another host (running > > ssh 3.2.9.1 server), I get this when trying to use > > hostbased authentication: > > > > warning: Received error 1, message: "Unable to load host keys.". > > > > Using an ssh 3.1.2 client compiled on RedHat works without > > error, and I get the same results whether I use the old > > key (this was previously running RedHat) or a newly generated > > one.

Wiki & Bugzilla
by Torsten E. 10 Aug '05

10 Aug '05

Hi, is there an field missing in Wiki -> Preferences? Its said: * Real name (optional): if you choose to provide it this will be used for giving you attribution for your work. ** Email (optional): Enables others to contact you through your user or user_talk page without the need of revealing your email address. It also allows the wiki to sent you a temporary password in case you forgot your current one. But there's no field to type an email-adress ... Regarding Bugzilla: are there any general problems with Bugzilla? Its asking several times for username/password, just to give an nice Tomcat Error Page: HTTP Status 500 type Exception report message description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request. exception (a long list) Have a nice day Torsten

You need ndiswrapper for Broadcom :( Haven't downloaded OpenSUSE, but probably does come with it (comes with 9.3). sys file should be obtained from the MS-Windows drivers. HTH Rafa

Fwd: Problem after upgrade fontconfig and freetype2
by t.wille＠vannas.net 10 Aug '05

10 Aug '05

Dear list; I used apt to upgrade fontconfig (2.3.2.20050721..) and freetype2 (2.1.10-2.1) on my SUSE 9.3. It made most of my fonts look ugly! But after degrading back to older versions (ftp.suse.com), and using an old version of fonts.conf from another user on my machine it all went back to normal (PUH). Maybe there is someone who has encountered the same problem.. All the best! Tomas

usb-wireless nic troubles
by jim jim 10 Aug '05

10 Aug '05

I have just installed 9.4 and cannot get the network to work. The system sees the card. I can see the lights blink. Configured it with Yast as per the help page. I can bring it up with ifconfig but can't talk to it. Shows up on the proc filesystem and correctly identifies the card. I must have missed something somewhere. Just can't think of it. Got to be too obvious. __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail Stay connected, organized, and protected. Take the tour: http://tour.mail.yahoo.com/mailtour.html

openoffice under SuSE 9.2 (an NFS problem????)
by Jonathan Brooks 10 Aug '05

10 Aug '05

Anyone had this problem?: I have installed version 1.9.122 as root using the RPMs provided by OpenOffice.org I can run the program as root, but when I try to run it as a normal user I get the following error message: > soffice /etc/openoffice.org-1.9/program/javaldx: symbol lookup error: /lib/libnss_ldap.so.2: undefined symbol: __db185_open /etc/openoffice.org-1.9/program/soffice.bin: symbol lookup error: /lib/libnss_ldap.so.2: undefined symbol: __db185_open The only thing I can think might be screwing me around is that the user's home dir is stored on an NFS mounted disk, and rootsquash is set to prevent root from writing there (to increase security on the server). Anyone got any ideas? Cheers, Jon.

Just before I post about an installation problem, I was wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of an HCL that I could use to check if my problems are due to hardware? My system in particular is an HP nx6110, Celeron-M 1.4Ghz, 512MB RAM, 40GB HD, integrated WLAN (Broadcom chipset, so I know it won't work :( Damn you Broadcom!!!) Many thanks, Andy
