Title:
sshd boolean option parsing is excessively case-sensitive
Status in portable OpenSSH:
Unknown
Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Dear People,
The field 'PasswordAuthentication' unlike all the others requires no
capitalization in order for the ssh daemon to start properly!
While this works:
PasswordAuthentication yes
The following doesn't work for this field (though works for other fields):
PasswordAuthentication Yes
This is most likely an issue to bring up to upstream project. Could we
have a fix so that configuration can be done in a consistent way and
the daemon doesn't break because of capitalization of a given
parameter (it works on the other fields using [Yy] or [Nn]).
This is a reality in 14.04 and 16.04.
Thanks for your time.
