The portable version of OpenSSH, 2.5.2p2 has good support for PAM now. I have compiled it for x86 Solaris and it works great. I had asked a little bit ago about the plans to move to the 2.5 branch of OpenSSH and the general sentiment was that a couple of things were still broken in that branch, such as TIS. I took a look at the changelog and I don't see anything about TIS being fixed, nor do I see anything in the TODO about fixing it. Are there any more problems with 2.5 before moving it into STABLE? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE6wNP5v8Bofna59hYRA298AKCNclZ7v3hv8tNGtWYi1CrGGDfpcgCgqeTW CsPNj/rcdaId+ZEzyqdGFN4= =Hnor -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
