Kevin,

Ouch, not what I wanted to hear, but thanks for the info.
I'll do some more checking and forward that up the chain.

Thanks,

John T. Mills

PermitRootLogin does not override AIX rlogin=false, at least in my
experience.

Nor does UseLogin.

You could maybe modify the OpenSSH source.

I use Kerberos telnet/rsh/rlogin from MIT. It does not honor rlogin=false.

I could never get this to work with OpenSSH and rlogin=false.

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.

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
