OpenSSH 5.0 for 5.3

[unixfreak]

Hi, why am I having so many problems finding OpenSSH 5.x for AIX 5.3 as a bff? It's available for 5.2, why not 5.3?

Thanks

the version for AIX 5.2 should work on 5.3

at least below compilation for AIX works perfectly on 5.2 or 5.3:

It doesn't, ADMCHG is broken

Check out the packages in the download section at

http://pware.hvcc.edu/

Some very useful (and up to date) AIX packages are available on the site.

why do you say that ADMCHG is broken?? I am pretty sure ADMCHG was fixed a few years ago....

Sorry for the delay. The sourceforge site only seemed to have OpenSSH for AIX 5.2 but I realised you have to click browse folders to get to a 5.3 version.

It's still broken though, get this in the log:

Oct 9 13:56:25 server auth|security:crit sshd[184458]: fatal: Failed to change password for , passwd returned 28928

and running the server in debug mode I get:

debug1: Received SIGCHLD.
debug1: session_by_pid: pid 364766
debug1: session_exit_message: session 0 channel 0 pid 364766
debug1: session_exit_message: release channel 0
debug1: session_by_tty: session 0 tty /dev/pts/0
debug1: session_pty_cleanup: session 0 release /dev/pts/0

debug1: session_close_by_channel: channel 0 child 0
debug1: session_close: session 0 pid 0
debug1: channel 0: free: server-session, nchannels 1

when the new password is entered the first time. Any ideas?

Thanks
