Hi,
After upgrading openssh from 6.4p1-1 to 6.5p1-1, ssh to host names
listed in /etc/hosts fails. /etc/hosts is actually a symlink to
/cygdriv/c/Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts.
Not sure that's the actual reason. getaddrinfo is a WinSock call
which, probably, never ignores its hosts file.
% ssh centaur
getaddrinfo: (null): Name or service not known
ssh: connect to host centaur port 22: No such file or directory
(null) is the replacement string when printf'ing a NULL pointer as
string. So it seems ssh called getaddrinfo with a NULL pointer for
node and service.
Can you call `ssh -vvv centaur' and see if the debug output gives
some clue as to what happens?
With openssl 6.4 I got this
ssh -vvvv centaur
OpenSSH_6.4, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014
debug1: Reading configuration data /home/olast/.ssh/config
debug1: /home/olast/.ssh/config line 55: Applying options for centaur
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 1
debug1: Connecting to centaur [192.168.0.254] port 22.
debug1: Allocated local port 1023.
debug1: Connection established.
...
With openssl 6.5 I got this
ssh -vvvv centaur
OpenSSH_6.5, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014
debug1: Reading configuration data /home/olast/.ssh/config
debug1: /home/olast/.ssh/config line 55: Applying options for centaur
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 1
debug1: Connecting to centaur [192.168.0.254] port 22.
getaddrinfo: (null): Name or service not known
ssh: connect to host centaur port 22: No such file or directory
I then started to comment out different lines in my .ssh/config file.
The line that caused the problem was
UsePrivilegedPort yes
After removing that lines I got this
ssh -vvvv centaur
OpenSSH_6.5, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014
debug1: Reading configuration data /home/olast/.ssh/config
debug1: /home/olast/.ssh/config line 55: Applying options for centaur
debug2: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
debug1: Connecting to centaur [192.168.0.254] port 22.
debug1: Connection established.
