Re: SSH problem



Mmmm, that would explain things!

i haven't installed any SSH system myself but maybe the last guy did! Or perhaps it came as part of something else.

Any ideas how I can return to the stock apple openSSH that came with 10.3.9?

thanks for the reply

Dave

Hi Guys

I have a problem with SSH on a 10.3.9 server.

Initially it looked like sshd was corrupt, the file was locked, couldn't be unlocked, moved, renamed or deleted. Couldn't even do anything with it when I booted from another system disk. Eventually fixed it by creating a new /usr/sbin/ folder and moved everything into it along with a backup of sshd. That's fine, it works again.

Now I have another problem.

When I run ssh-keygen -t dsa, rather than ask for a location to save the key it puts it (id_dsa_1024_a), without delay, into ~/.ssh2/

Why doesn't it put it into ~/.ssh/ or ask for a location?


Hello Dave,

It looks like you aren't using OppenSSH as provided by Apple anymore; are you sure you haven't installed some third-party SSH system (such as the one from ssh.com) on your server and overwritten all or part of the original components?


I have tried it on two other servers and it stores asks for a location and defaults to ~/.ssh/


Because that's the default behavior of the ssh-keygen binary that comes with OpenSSH...

HTH,
