Description Margaret Doll 2002-06-28 01:36:32 AEST 
At the end of the "make install"

        if [ -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_rsa_key ] ; then \
                echo "/usr/local/etc/ssh_host_rsa_key already exists, skipping." ; \
        else \
                ./ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_rsa_key -N "" ; \
       fi ; \
fi ;
./ssh-keygen: syntax error at line 4: `^A\223^\^Bn^BH^By^A' unexpected
*** Error code 2
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `host-key'

Only a guess but worth checking: I've seen binaries corrupted on Solaris/SPARC 
when programs linked by /usr/ccs/bin/ld are stripped with GNU strip. Try putting 
/usr/ccs/bin at the start of your path and recompiling.
Comment 2 Ben Lindstrom 2002-08-16 07:32:01 AEST 
This is a GNU Binutils issue.  Where their strip command is broken.  Please 
address it with them.
Comment 3 Darren Tucker 2002-08-16 10:09:20 AEST 
The strip bug has been fixed in binutils-2.13.
