I just did an emerge sync ; emerge -u world, which brought down:

net-misc/openssh-3.6.1_p2

After the emerge (which went successfully) and the etc-update (which went fine), I tried to restart sshd:
Code:
root # /etc/init.d/sshd restart
 * Stopping sshd...                                                           [ ok ]
 * Starting sshd...
buffer_get: trying to get more bytes 1 than in buffer 0                       [ !! ]

This problem occured on two different machines here at home. One Athlon XP, one Pentium III. Anyone else seen this problem?

I'm getting weird hiccups and stuff, accompanied by log entries like this (BEFORE I enter the password):

Code:
May  3 00:11:27 [sshd(pam_unix)] authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=NODEVssh ruser= rhost=localhost  user=dma


I did *NOT* get these before. The delay is quite noticeable (about 5 seconds on a lan).

I also wasn't asked (or able) to do etc-update.

I am also getting stuttering when doing "ls" and similar commands over ssh (but not on the console).

I'm seriously thinking about downgrading back to the old version because of performance quirks.

I am in the process of doing that right now. :(

I just did this:
Code:
# emerge unmerge openssh
# cd /usr/portage/net-mist/openssh
# emerge openssh-3.6.1_p1.ebuild
# /etc/init.d/sshd start

And everything is working again. Something 'bout that _p2 version that was messing things up.

I tested downgrading to the 3.5 version and all of my problems went away (despite the information disclosure vulnerability). "ls", etc. no longer have that VERY ANNOYING choppiness.

EDIT: Perhaps this should be moved to #18 (Networking and Security).
