Daily snapshots...

[Michael H. Warfield]

All,

	How can I get at the daily snapshots?

	When I go to the website, www.openssh.com, and follow the Linux
link to portable.html and then go to request the daily snapshot from
http://bass.directhit.com/openssh_snap/, I get prompted for a user id
and password.  Needless to say, I ain't got.

	That's real useful.  Use to be, I could get the snapshots from
the ftp site.  Then things changed and the snapshots were no longer
available from the ftp site and I had to go through the web site.  Now
I can't get them there either.  Is there some reason why the daily
snaps just keep getting buried deeper and deeper away?

	IAC...  I've also tried cvs and THAT was worse.  I could get to
cvs and could get the sources, but they currently do not build on my
RedHat 6.2 system.  After running autoconf and then configure, this
is what I get from make:

	This was my configure command:

	./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --with-tcp-wrappers --with-ipv4-default --with-pam --with-skey=/usr/lib

	(Taken from the RedHat Spec file from the 2.3.0p1 source rpm)

	This is what it reports when it's finished configuring:


] OpenSSH configured has been configured with the following options.

] 
] PAM is enabled. You may need to install a PAM control file for sshd,
] otherwise password authentication may fail. Example PAM control files
] can be found in the contrib/ subdirectory

	So cvs is no joy here either.

	Anyone with some suggestions...
