Hi gurus,
Following on from Graham Allan <ALLAN_at_mnhep1.hep.umn.edu> and Eric Gatenby
<aptor_at_mailhub.com> questions regarding ssh (Secure Shell), I wish to
evaluate replacing rsh with ssh version 1.2.25.
I configured ssh thus:
-- cut --
./configure --prefix=/usr/apps --with-x --with-rsh=/usr/bin/rsh
-- cut --
However, ssh reports a runtime error when running ssh:
-- cut --
$ ssh somehost
22387:/usr/apps/bin/ssh: /sbin/loader: Fatal Error: cannot map libz.so.1.0.4
$ cd /usr/apps/lib
$ ls -la libz*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 208772 Jun 24 11:33 libz.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root system 13 Jun 6 15:02 libz.so_at_ -> libz.so.1.0.4
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 98304 Jan 26 18:10 libz.so.1.0.4
$ setenv | grep LD_LIBRARY_PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/apps/lib
-- cut --
I seemed to have stumbled on the very first hurdle before I can evaluate
ssh! Can anybody suggest why ssh fails to find libz? Do I require further
switches while configuring ssh?
I would also appreciate any views on ssh:
1) installation schemes
(should I disable rshd/rlogind from /etc/inetd.conf)
2) is ssh transparent to users?
(do all users have to generate a ssh key?)
3) does ssh involve large administration overheads
(for example running 'make-ssh-known-hosts')
4) general gotcha's or 'must read'
Thank you. Summary to follow.
Regards,
Rich
