OpenSSH 4.5p1problem with LynxOS v3.

[Davis, James (N-TEK Systems)]

Hello everyone,

Thank you for producing the portable version of OpenSSH.  I have a small
problem that I hope someone on here has perhaps seen before.

I am running OpenSSH 4.5p1 under a PowerPC build of LynxOS v3.
Everything builds and runs except there is a strange behavior that
occurs in a particular situation.

If you SSH to the system and then exit by typing "logout" then it works
as expected.  However, if you type "exit" then you see that logout is
being called but you are never returned to your original prompt on the
source system.

The child SSHD that is forked to service the client does not exit when
you exit via "exit" but it does when you exit via "logout" or simply
closing the terminal.

The problem seems to be in the server loop.  When you reproduce the
problem the forked SSHD sits in wait_until_can_do_something() and does
not exit.


Any help would be appreciated,

Thank you.
