You need help.

Hello. I am trying to use OpenSSH_4.7p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8g which came
with Cygwin
on Windows Vista.

I followed the instructions on sourceforge, and I can indeed do a "cvs
log fred.c" and
get what I want. However, there are two problems:

1. It always asks for a passphrase, even though I didn't enter a
passphrase. Hitting
enter makes it go away and let me have my data, but I want this
process automated.

2. I can't have an administrator command prompt when I do this.

My CVS_RSH is set to ssh

I tried a variety of things after searching on the internet.

As per sourceforge instructions, I sent them my id_dsa.pub

I tried copying this file to both authorized_keys and
authorized_keys2, and that had no effect.

I tried replacing my old identity file from another system with my
id_dsa, but that had no effect.

I searched and found a way to do ssh logins without using a password.
I followed the instructions, and it works great. Now, I am trying to
setup another user on different client computer to log into the same
server. No matter what I try I keep getting prompted for a password.

I setup another user on the same client machine I used at first and
went throught the same process of ssh-keygen -t, scp'ing id_dsa.pub up
to the server and appending it to the appropriate authorized_keys
file in the .ssh directory. This doesn't work as I get prompted for a
password. I have tried this with 3 different user accounts and it
fails for all of them. Yet and ssh my_server_name from the original
account that I setup still works without a password.

All of the computers in question are running FC-6.

I'm guessing there may not be a ready answer, but I am open to a list
of the most common stupid things people do with ssh clients for this
type of thing.

Thanks.

Hi,

I've been using ssh to access a remote server (server A) from my
workstation. The admin of server A do not provide me a password, he
prefers to use "shared secrets" for access control -- he creates a
userid for me, generates a key pair, puts the public key in ~/.ssh/
authorized_keys, provides me the userid and the private key; I copy
the private key into id.rsa on my workstation, and I then ssh into
server A. No password prompt appears.

Now I need to access another server (server B) from my workstation.
The admin of server B also uses the "shared secrets". The admins
won't use the same keys.

Is there any way to switch back and forth between the two private keys
on my workstation, short of replacing the id_rsa file every time I
want to access A or B?

Your SSH client was built without Kerberos and GSSAPI support. You
need to rebuld it with "./configure --with-kerberos5" (assuming you
have all of the required bits on your system).

Hi,

Has anybody forwarded a local port to a mysql port using libssh?
I have the following problem while doing so.

I am creating a channel and forwarding it to a mysql port (using
channel_open_forward() ).
The problem is after forwarding to mysql the channel will have some
data to read (Like mysql server version, etc).
I am reading that from the channel and writing into the local port.
Then the local port will have some data to be forwarded to the mysql
server.
I need to read this and write it into the forwarded channel.

This time it fails.

I can not write the data (read from local port) in to the previous
channel. I need to create a new channel.
Even new channel wont work! This situation keeps repeating.

What is the standard way to achieve this?

Hi,
could you name a ssh client for windows that has URL hyperlinking?

Thanks

Hi,

I created keys using ssh-keygen command and keys are stored in default
locations. I copied identity.pub file to authorized_keys file. I could
run remote commands. But I have few questions

1 . When I try to run remote command, it prompts like the following
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/
no)?
I dont want this to be prompted. I want to say YES by default. Is
there anyway i can achieve this without a prompt?

2. when i run ssh-keygen, it creates keys, this prompts user for
passphrase, private key file location. Is there anyway i can avoid
user prompting and take default values by default.

Thanks in advance,
Sandeep

hi

this question is largely an ssh question... `cos corkscrew is used
through ProxyCommand in ssh_config . Corkscrew has no mailing list as
of writing. I am sure some SSH users here use it with corkscrew.

I am having some trouble trying to figure out how to get corkscrew
working.

I am using squid as http and https proxy. As a test, so
127.0.0.1:3128 (squid`s default port is 3128)..

As I understand it, I should be able to set up any browser or ftp
client or whatever, to tunnel through the squid HTTPS proxy, and I use
corkscrew to do it.

I have tried a few things though, without even getting as far as
firefox, and it gets nowhere.

usage: corkscrew
[authfile]
$ corkscrew 127.0.0.1 3128 sourceforge.net 443 ~/a.a

I do not know what user/pass to put in the authfile, since HTTPs sites
like sourceforge.net do not require one from the browser.

Hi,
does SecureCRT support URL hyperlinking?
I mean: consider a URL in the terminal. The terminal should hyperlink
the URL for me, meaning that if I hover my mouse on it I can click on it
and then view it on my browser.

Thanks
