1. I have successfully added the most current packages such as PRNG, ZLIB, Openssl and Openssh3.4p1 on SPARC Solaris 7 with no problem. However I've been having problems on the Intel/Sparc Solaris 8 platforms. Packages installed: openssh-3.4p1, openssl-0.9.6d, zlib-1.14 and prngd.0.9.25 When Generating either keys either line below, I would received an error: PRNG not seeded. It appears theirs a missing link or path. ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key -N "" ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -N "" ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -N "" First I've seeded it with the following command: /usr/local/sbin/prngd /var/spool/prngd/pool Then tried running the ssh-keygen with no luck. /usr/local/sbin and /usr/local/bin are in its patch and sourced in addition to Rebooting the systems. I've also unpackaged PRNG and everything associated with it and added the Sunsolve Patch 112438-01 however after installing it, It appears the patch conflicted with an IDS software. Once uninstalled, the software was able to run Do I need to to build it versa adding the package? 2. After adding Openssh3.4p1 onto Solaris 7 Sparc platform, wanted to see if the system updating by running ssh -V The out was correct, however if I telnet to port 22, it shows the previous version of ssh. Why? How can I fix this?
OpenSSH's "configure" command will only pick up a new installation of PRNGD, when it is running during the call to configure. Thus make sure to * install prngd first and check its proper operation. * then run OpenSSH's configure command and check the output at the end: it should show the correct entropy source. * then compile and install OpenSSL Finally make sure to stop the daemon listening on port 22 and start the new one, otherwise it will not become active until reboot
Point 1 has already been answered by Lutz (and the INSTALL doc) Point 2: Make sure you have restarted the server. Besides, the bug tracking system is not the place to ask support questions.
