OpenSSH 3.8.1p1: call for testing

[Mike Dopheide]

openssh-SNAP-20040416.tar.gz

Tests OK on ia32 RedHat 8
Tests OK on ia64 SuSE SLES 8
Tests NOT OK on IRIX 6.5 (surprise!)


sftp Tests fail on IRIX 6.5:
...
sftp commands: get filename with quotes
cmp:  EOF  on  /afs/ncsa/.u10/dopheide/openssh/test/openssh/regress/copy."blah"
corrupted copy after get with quotes
...
sftp commands: glob put to directory
put failed
sftp commands: put to local dir
sftp commands: glob put to local dir
put failed

For starters, I know very little about IRIX.  This could very easily just 
be a product of our environment, so I'd prefer it if someone else were to 
test IRIX 6.5 as well.  That being said, I've made the config.log,  
config.status, and some environment info available for your viewing 
pleasure:
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/~dopheide/openssh/

I do not have administrative privileges on that system, but if you need me 
to try anything else, just holler.

> Hello All.
> 	Portable OpenSSH version 3.8.1p1 nearing release.  This is primarily a 
> bug fix release and we're asking for interested parties to try a 
> snapshot [1].  A reminder: we rely on community feedback to find out 
> about problems, particularly as there are many platforms any 
> configurations that we don't have access to and can't test.
> 
> 	In most cases, running the built-in tests is as simple as "./configure 
> && make tests", but actually using it will provide a better test for 
> your environment.  Both would be ideal, but either one is far better 
> than neither.
> 
> 	In particular, on HP-UX configure will now attempt to detect a working 
> getnameinfo(), so if you are using IPv6 on HP-UX please see if it 
> detects correctly for your environment.
