Hello all,
I use a Slackware 4.0 based system (libc5 based, with glibc2.07 runtime
support).
I've configured OpenSSH using:
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --without-pam
--with-default-path=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbi
n:/sbin
NOTE: yes, --with-default-path DOES work, since pre24 (pre 22 did not)
When I try to compile OpenSSH-1.2.1pre25 (or pre24 or pre22), I get the
following error messages:
gcc -g -O2 -Wall -I/usr/local/ssl/include -DETCDIR=\"/etc/ssh\"
-DSSH_PROGRAM=\"/usr/local/bin/ssh\"
-DSSH_ASKPASS_DEFAULT=\"/usr/local/libexec/ssh/ssh-askpass\"
-DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c pty.c -o pty.o
pty.c: In function `pty_allocate':
pty.c:100: warning: implicit declaration of function `grantpt'
pty.c:104: warning: implicit declaration of function `unlockpt'
pty.c:108: warning: implicit declaration of function `ptsname'
pty.c:108: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast
pty.c:122: `I_PUSH' undeclared (first use this function)
pty.c:122: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
pty.c:122: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [pty.o] Error 1
If I then edit pty.c and add a line after the test, unconditionally
undefining HAVE_DEV_PTMX like this:
/* Pty allocated with _getpty gets broken if we do I_PUSH:es to it. */
#if defined(HAVE__GETPTY) || defined(HAVE_OPENPTY)
#undef HAVE_DEV_PTMX
#endif
#undef HAVE_DEV_PTMX
Then everything compiles, installs and functions ALMOST normally.
However, /var/log/wtmp is NOT updated.
Login messages appear in syslog quite normally, /var/run/utmp appears to be
updated properly, but /var/log/wtmp is not updated on login/logpout using
openSSH.
I also note that, on the same setup, /var/log/wtmp IS updated correctly
when using commercial SSH (version 1.2.26).
Any suggestions how I should investigate this problem further? My C skills
are basically limited to messing with Makefiles and sundry to get programs
to compile, and I'm NOT competent to plunge into the code and post a diff
to the list.
Also, I note that ssh -V always returns
SSH Version OpenSSH-1.2.1, protocol version 1.5
Not that this is a real problem, but it makes it difficult to see what
preXX version I'm actually running. Would adding this to the version output
cause problems elesewhere?
Thanks for any and all pointers!
John
