Yup, that's the case and I tested it on FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE. What's up with that? Is it a feature or a bug? Regards, Patrick Soltani. -----Original Message----- From: Scott Aitken [mailto:scotta@whoever.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2001 6:47 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: Accepting passwords of greater length than stored Hi all, Does any know why when SSHing to a FreeBSD 4.4-STABLE box succeeds when you enter a password LONGER than the password on the system? The initial part must match the password, but it doesn't seem to matter if you just keep on typing. I assume it also has nothing to do SSH, as ProFTPd suffers from the safe symptom, but I am unable to test telnet at the moment.
