Re: [opensuse-security] login-problem on OpenSuSE 11.1

Hi,

I think the problem is not related to OpenSSH but to a faulty local
security subsystem.

It might be interesting to see the output of dmesg, but you cannot
execute it as you cannot log to the sistem (not even as root?)
/etc/password and /etc/shadow are in place and healthy?
Did you ignore some dependencies while instaling/upgrading?

Weird problem there.

regards

ariel


PS: There was a recent security update on openssl (SUSE-SA:2010:020)
that fixes some key renegotiation issues.
Even though it does not seem to affect the stage of the process where
your ssh handshake fails, maybe you would like to revert and check if
the problem exists after/before the fix.
