I think we're having a disconnect here. I am trying
to enable root login via ssh, not disable it. I am
changing the rlogin attribute of the root user to
false. The problem is that ssh looks at that parameter
and denies the connection. I am looking for a means
to configure ssh to ignore the settings on the root
user and allow root to ssh into the box. I tried
PermitRootLogin no/yes and neither worked, but I may
be running an odd version of ssh on this box.

Hmmm I always thought that was the solution.
If it is root logins you are trying to stop, then set this in
/etc/sshd_config
PermitRootLogin no
Otherwise, I'm not sure anymore.

Chris,
My daemon starts on demand, so I don't have anything to restart I think.
I tried the change and it is still disallowing login with rlogin=false. Was
this a fix for ssh to honor rlogin or ignore it? I am trying to get ssh to
ignore rlogin=false.
John

In /etc/sshd_config set the following entry:
UseLogin yes
And restart sshd. This should cause it to honor rlogin=false.

Bill,
I don't have an sshd running. I'm using openssh,
and it starts a sshd when I connect but it doesn't
keep one running in the background. I am just doing
and 'ssh hostname' to test and a 'chuser rlogin=false
uid' to make the change.
When I set rlogin=false I get the standard:
Remote logins are not allowed for this account.
message. With rlogin=true I can ssh with no problems.

Curious - did you refresh or stop/start sshd ?

All,
Has anyone had any luck getting ssh to function
when rlogin=false has been set? I understand that
ssh takes rlogin=false very seriously, but I am
trying to configure ssh to function after this
change is made.
Thanks,
John T. Mills
