It belongs in upgrade instructions or, even better, perhaps ssh should be patched to accept the original host key file if the new one doesn't exist. But trying to do any modification of /etc assumes way, way too much about how the machine has been configured or is being used. For example, / might be mounted read-only. Additionally, doing 'one time corrections' from an rc file is pollutes its purpose. When do you propose that this modification be removed? A year? Two years? Is it supposed to stay there forever? -Matt : :> jesper 2001/05/16 12:23:55 PDT :> :> Modified files: :> etc rc.network :> Log: :> Link /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key to /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key to deal with :> gratutious changes in the latest SSH :> :> Reviewed by: obrien :> Approved by: obrien :> :> Revision Changes Path :> 1.94 +8 -3 src/etc/rc.network : :I would have thought it's more appropriate to remove one of the :useless Host Keys in sshd_config instead. : :-- :Brian : :Don't _EVER_ lose your sense of humour ! : : To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
