I have a client running OpenServer 5.0.4.....I am trying to install SSH
binaries from ftp.aplawrence.com. The exact file is ssh_3.1p1_os5.tar.gz.
After installing the file in /usr/local/ssh, I then ran the key generation
and got the following messages:
Your identification has been saved in /usr/local/ssh/etc/ssh_host_dsa_key.
dynamic linker: /usr/local/ssh/bin/ssh-keygen: symbol not found: b64_ntop
./script.genkeys: 22452 Killed
Generating public/private rsa key pair.
Your identification has been saved in /usr/local/ssh/etc/ssh_host_rsa_key.
dynamic linker: /usr/local/ssh/bin/ssh-keygen: symbol not found: b64_ntop
./script.genkeys: 22486 Killed

Any idea where "b64_ntop" is found??
Thanks

Did some more searching and found the solution .... but not the fix. The
solution
is to get the 2001 Security Advisories for SCO Products/CSSA-2001-SCO.10
security patches for "telnetd". Problem is when you go to that on the SCO
web
site I get a broken link. Does anyone have the patch files.???
Thanks

Another possibility: oss646a, released a couple of months ago,
gives you 5.0.7 libraries for older OSR5 versions. It appears to
give you everything that openssh needs; I installed it on a 5.0.5 system
that had never had those libraries installed, then installed openssh,
and everything I've tested so far (openssh installation and key
generation, sshd startup, using ssh client to connect to remote
servers) worked.

It's officially supported only on 5.0.5 and 5.0.6, but the notes
say it is known to install on 5.0.4 as well. If you want to install
it, read the notes because it also affects the development system.

As long as you are willing to install 3.1p1 version of openssh,
this script:
http://www.aljex.com/bkw/sco/index.html#setup_ssh

will do the entire job, start to finish from scratch in a few minutes.
it automatically figures out that you are running 5.0.4, and installs
various things that are necessary for 5.0.4 only. It gets the openssh
binaries from a sco security update (not skunkware) and as soon as the
script is done running you can immediately ssh and sftp to the box and
from the box. It is set up in the start-up "rc" scripts too it comes
up at boot too.

However 3.1p1 is pretty old by now and I recommend only running the
part of the script that updates your networking libraries so that your
box can run newer binaries which have been compiled on 5.0.6 and up.

To that end, I have just updated setup_ssh and broken out the network
libraries update code into a seperate script.

so if you run this script:
http://www.aljex.com/bkw/sco/index.html#netlibs
it will update the libraries necessary to make that b64_ntop error go
away. In the bargain you'll be able to run most other binaries
currently out there that have been compiled on fully updated 5.0.6
boxes. Everything on my page just for starters.

enjoy. :)
