RE: [cobalt-users] Installing OpenSSH (was: If you have been a vi ctim)





The default locations for compiled OSSH binaries is under /usr/local
and default for config files (sshd_config ssh_host_key, etc) is
/usr/local/etc.  Before compilation of OpenSSH, when you do your
./configure, you can specify alternate paths, which is the reason
in my previous e-mail/Openssh install HOWTO for the --sysconfdir=/etc
option.  This puts the config files in /etc rather than /usr/local/etc.


Thank you Brandon for all of your help, I am just having trouble with it finding the openssl library.

I did a 'locate ssl' and noticed a some things in /etc/httpd/ssl and a few other places:

so i was trying to configure with this command:

./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --with-ssl-dir=/usr/sbin/openssl
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --with-ssl-dir=/etc/httpd/ssl

and a couple of others but all seem to fail. What is the proper method of configuring SSH with openssl on a Raq?

Thank you again for your help
