Amiga Events : OpenSSH released for OS4 on OS4Depot
Posted by orgin on 2006/12/18 9:10:00 (2576 reads) News by the same author

Steven Solie has ported OpenSSH to AmigaOS 4.0.

This includes ssh, sftp, scp, ssh-keygen, ssh-keyscan and ssh-keysign.

OpenSSH is a FREE version of the SSH connectivity tools that technical
users of the Internet rely on. Users of telnet, rlogin, and ftp may not
realize that their password is transmitted across the Internet unencrypted,
but it is. OpenSSH encrypts all traffic (including passwords) to effectively
eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other attacks.

This port is currently limited to the OpenSSH clients: ssh, sftp and scp.
Additional tools provided include ssh-keygen, ssh-keyscan and ssh-keysign.

Defect #1 ( quibble ):

Once connection established, no TERM set automatically.

Defect #2 ( serious ):

Once connection established, doing a further ssh to a remote site from inside the session results in a hung terminal, as does doing an su.

Fantastic! Hopefully this'll mean I can drop my internal (home network) Telnet connection in favour of ssh!

Cheers,
Bean.

@ssolie

Thanks! Now I can finally update my website from my AmigaOne using sftp. Just tried and it works.

[edit]
One minor issue:
Using sftp and "put" command to upload files I have to manually set read permission with "chmod 744 filename".

 Re: OpenSSH released for OS4 on OS4Depot
I see orgin beat me to my news report.

I tested the tools against Mac OS X (Intel) and Debian (PPC). I'm not a big ssh user (yet) so I don't know if the features I didn't enable are really that useful or not. Email is the best way to contact me by the way.

Everything should work with a standard OS4 (update 4 or better) install. I tested everything on the latest OS4 beta.

TERM is pulled in from your shell's environment variable TERM and sent to the other side. Not my problem.

I'll need a detailed test case. Please send me an email.

I didn't see any troubles but then I didn't use the "put" command from in a session. I was doing stuff like this:
sftp file user@machine:file

I thought the modes were controlled from the server side of things?

 Re: OpenSSH released for OS4 on OS4Depot
Then you need to document that TERM issue, so we know how to use it from AmigaOS4.0.

As for the test case, its simple.

ssh into host a

connection established.

Using this connection:

ssh into host b ( from host a )

host b prompts for password

Try to type in password ... nothing happens, session locked.

Also

ssh into host a.

type su

Session prompts for password
Session now locked.

That's all the detail you are getting because more detail than that would be to give you my unix host names and passwords.

 Re: OpenSSH released for OS4 on OS4Depot
One extra point, I don't use port 22 for any of my ssh connections, so if you have anything hardcoded that might be the reason (although I doubt it as it should just be a matter of redirecting the stream down the already open socket ).

Just tested things and it works fine if you press CTRL-D after entering your password. On the Mac OS X you have to press CTRL-D but on Debian I can hit enter as usual.

Just a terminal mismatch problem it seems.
