I have problem with the config file for clients which is ssh_config or ~/.ssh/config
every config that i write in them not working fore example when I change the escape character to ! its not working or any other config I checked with another system that has the same OS ((debian 6)) but the problem was there too
Do I missing something here that cause this? like enabling client configuration ?
My Fedora Core 8 server came with OpenSSH Server 4.7p1 installed. I could not find a YUM package or RPM for 5.2p1, so I installed it manually and rebooted. Now if I do a version check with "sshd -v", it reports it's version as "OpenSSH_5.2p1", but if I connect with Putty, it reports "SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.7". Do I have two versions of OpenSSH running or what's going on?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI suppose that my main Linux user account password serves as my SSH password as well. Is there a way I can modify this? As it turns out, I'd like to have a REALLY secure SSH password for obvious reasons, but a less secure local password, as it makes typing in passwords a heck of a lot easier on a machine. Is there a way I can change my account password in SSH without changing my Linux user password?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've compiled openssh-5.4p1 on RHEL 4.8 with Openssl 0.9.8m + pam It works perfect without pam (pam-0.77-66), both with password and public key auth. Whith pam enabled and LDAP (openldap-2.4.21, from scratch) something strange happens: system users: I can do ssh with both password and public key LDAP users: public key works for remote users, still I cannot do ssh with just password. I'm trying a custom PAM configuration, because the default one (even with authconfig + LDAP ) blocks ssh even with system users.
My pam SSHD configuration is:
#%PAM-1.0
auth required pam_env.so
auth sufficient pam_unix.so likeauth nullok
auth sufficient pam_ldap.so use_first_pass
[code]....
My LDAP users are ok: i can do "su - " remote LDAP (so that nss_ldap is OK), also getent passwd and getent group is ok.

When I connect with my vps server through openssh, doesn't establish connection. Openssh is active (see its status), port 22 is open, the sshd_config file is the same of original copy (I have saved one in the case I did a mistake) the only line different permitrootpassword is set on ''no'', there isn't a firewall that block ssh connection and with other remote desktop control like remmina works well.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSet up my mom with Ubuntu and want to be able to connect to her computer remotely to help her out when she has a question. I did some search and it seems that everyone recommends using openSSH. I used this link [url]
To install it on my mom's computer (changed the port to 16 instead of 22 and added those lines he suggested to the end of that file). Now what? I can't seem to find any instruction to connect the two computers. Looking around I also found:
1- Remote Desktop Viewer
2- Terminal Server Client
under applications/internet and
3- Remote Desktop under preferences
It looks like I can use those to connect also. But are they related to openSSH? Should I uninstall openSSH and use 1,2 or 3? Which is moe secure or are they the same.
I just setup Ubuntu 10.04, and immediately installed OpenSSH using synaptic. I edited the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file e.g. no password authentication, non-standard port, etc. Using /etc/init.d/ssh restart I restarted the daemon, and everything worked perfectly. However, now it's almost like there is a lock on my service somehow. I edited the config file and added "PrintMotd no" and "Banner none". I killed all my active ssh sessions, restarted, and still saw the motd and the banner.
I then tried sudo /etc/init.d/ssh stop. The script reported ok, but netstat reported sshd as still listening on the port I had defined. I could still login. At this point, I don't know what else to do. I have tried looking at auth.log, I don't see anything funny there. I tried rebooting, and the config changes are (apparently) not loaded, I still see the motd upon ssh login. This is a totally clean system so I don't know what I am doing improperly.
I connect to a server on linux(openssh) through ssh. Is there a way such that i can hide my IP on that machine so that the server won't know my username and IP address?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have an old computer a friend of mine found in a dumpster, and I've decided to use it as a file server. After finally getting it to connect to my wifi network, I tried connecting to it via OpenSSH on my main desktop. After I connected, I noticed OpenSSH was being very laggy. Whenever I type anything in there's a very noticable and annoying delay from when I type it to when it appears on screen. Now, a while ago a friend of mine was helping me fix my laptop when fglrx drivers broke x, and I set up openssh on there so he could access it. According to him, there was no lag (and he's half-way across the globe, whereas my file server is in the other room). The computer is an old Pentium 4 with one and a half gigs of RAM, two hard drives (one I use for the os/swapping and the other I use for /home). It's connected to wifi via a spare USB Linksys 802.11 bg adaptor I found lying around, and it's using the default drivers that come with Debian to connect.

It is handy for when my account is not logged into the server and VNC hasn't started.I have freenx working but it requires sshd_config to enable PasswordAuthentication. This isn't a major security problem at the moment since I have deny.hosts running but I still don't like it enabled. I would much rather only use the keys.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI had to compile openssh so I could have a version with the HPN-SSH patch applied. The compile seems to have gone fine, but oddly enough I have now have no ssh script in my /etc/init.d directory. So I have no easy way of automatically starting openssh-server.Here are the configure options I used when compiling openssh:
Code:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --with-pam
I'm having problems getting openssh server to accept connections in Ubuntu 10.04.Here's what I've done (twice): Installed Ubuntu 10.04 on USB drive with pendrive installer. This creates a default user "ubuntu" and you don't get the chance to choose a password for it. Started a keyring for network access and selected password. Works.Enabled VNC and selected password. Works fine with VNC client on local network. Logs in as "ubuntu" user and asks for the VNC password, then connects. Note: the client doesn't know the "ubuntu" user password, and neither do I! However, it works.Installed openssh client and server from Ubuntu s/w center.
$ ssh localhost OR $ ssh ubuntu@localhost try to connect, but asks for password, which I don't know (see step one, above) so, then I created a new user, with known password, logged in as new user in Ubuntu, works.however, $ ssh newuser@localhost still fails, even when correct password for <newuser> is supplied. Rejects the password three times, then gets the usual error about keys.I also tried connecting with an SSH terminal app from my iPad, again using <newuser>. It gets essentially the same error, "failure to authenticate".
All this is still on my own LAN, haven't gotten to going outside the router yet.What I want to do in the end is use VNC over SSH from a client on my iPad to talk securely to Ubuntu while I'm traveling.
I have Ubuntu 10.04 and I used my ssh to connect to a webserver. This is the version that I have installed.

Apparently the server was hacked using my user and the server admin suggested the my ssh can be tainted.
do a checksum of the ssh, but I cannot find this file on my system.
Code:
md5sum /usr/sbin/sshd
And I will need a md5 hash from a good untainted version and I cannot find that as well on the openssh website.
When ever I try to sftp or even ssh into my server I get connection refused.
I have the port forwarded in my router.
What am I missing?
Also I have installed Ngnix so what do I need to do for it to work?
What was the equivalent apt-get command for installing LAMP and OpenSSH in Ubuntu 10.10?
