Openssh-2.1.1p1 and solaris 7/8

[John Horne]

Hello,

I just installed the above openssh onto a Sun Solaris 7 and Solaris 8 system.
No problem with that. However, I now seem to get some rubbish processed when
I login with slogin. An example:

Last login: Tue Jun 13 12:31:27 2000 from jhorne.csd.plymo:tJ`
^[[?1;2c

Telnet logs in okay, but just shows 'Last login...jhorne.csd.plymo'.

This seems to get passed to the shell, which it of course errors on. I do,
however, actually login okay. This is seen on both systems. As a test I
purged the /var/adm/lastlog file - logged out, logged in  - this was okay.
Logged out and logged in again, and got the same problem.

I upgraded from 2.1.0p3 to fix the utmpx problem; that version did not
exhibit this problem. So far the utmpx problem hasn't recurred though :-)

I configured both systems using:
  ./configure --with-egd-pool=/tmp/entropy --with-catman=man
              --with-tcp-wrappers --with-default-path=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin

Using the '--disable-lastlog' got around the problem. Something doesn't seem
right though.

John.
