Over time, we continue to experience intermittent sshd authentication problems in our environment. Every so often (~ 1.5% of the time, but enough to cause our automated tests to fail), admin privileges are not granted. Perhaps there is some setting in the /etc/sshd_config file that we need to change.
[sshd_config] $ grep -ve '^#' sshd_config Port 22 StrictModes no UsePrivilegeSeparation yes Subsystem sftp /usr/sbin/sftp-server Test: 'ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] id' in a loop over and over again Script: #!/bin/bash USER=$1 HOST=$2 while [ true ] ; do echo -e "\n *** $USER on $HOST *** \n" ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] id sleep 10 done Results: The test executed 19140 times over the weekend. The test recorded 318 occurrences of the problem with ssh not returning the admin privileges as expected. The impact of this interaction on our test environment is that sometimes, test fail because our tools require admin privilege to execute. When ssh works normally: *** Administrator on smoke3 *** uid=10500(Administrator) gid=10513(Domain Users) groups=10512(Domain Admins),105 13(Domain Users),10519(Enterprise Admins),10520(Group Policy Creator Owners),105 18(Schema Admins),544(Administrators),545(Users) When ssh works abnormally: *** Administrator on smoke3 *** uid=10500(Administrator) gid=10513(Domain Users) groups=10513(Domain Users),545(Users) Thanks in advance, Matt Berney -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
