[Bug 798] grabs different uid if copying multiple files to remote host
http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798

Summary: grabs different uid if copying multiple files to remote
host
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 3.7.1p2
Platform: UltraSparc
OS/Version: SunOS
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: sshd
AssignedTo: openssh-bugs@mindrot.org
ReportedBy: scott.packard@jpl.nasa.gov


- copying multiple files to a remote host, and the uname I give has
the same uid as another login uname:
Forces login as the uname I gave for the first file, but forces
login as the first uname found on remote host that matches
the uid it found from
the first successful login during subsequent file copies.

ex: scp /etc/auto_home /etc/auto_master /etc/auto_opt sproot@design84:/etc

first time I am asked for passwd for sproot, subsequent times I'm asked for
passwd for root.

On the remote host, /etc/passwd contains both root and sproot entries, with
root at the top of the file. Both entries share the same uid.
