Prerequisites ----------------- - -You will need working installations of Zlib and OpenSSL. - -Zlib: -http://www.gzip.org/zlib/ - -OpenSSL 0.9.6 or greater: -http://www.openssl.org/ - -(OpenSSL 0.9.5a is partially supported, but some ciphers (SSH protocol 1 -Blowfish included) do not work correctly.) - -RPMs of OpenSSL are available at http://violet.ibs.com.au/openssh/files/support. -For Red Hat Linux 6.2, they have been released as errata. RHL7 includes -these. - -OpenSSH can utilise Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) if your system -supports it. PAM is standard on Redhat and Debian Linux, Solaris and -HP-UX 11. - -NB. If you operating system supports /dev/random, you should configure -OpenSSL to use it. OpenSSH relies on OpenSSL's direct support of -/dev/random. If you don't you will have to rely on ssh-rand-helper, which -is inferior to a good kernel-based solution. - -PAM: -http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/ - -If you wish to build the GNOME passphrase requester, you will need the GNOME -libraries and headers. - -GNOME: -http://www.gnome.org/ - -Alternatively, Jim Knoble <jmknoble@jmknoble.cx> has written an excellent X11 -passphrase requester. This is maintained separately at: - -http://www.ntrnet.net/~jmknoble/software/x11-ssh-askpass/index.html - -PRNGD: - -If your system lacks Kernel based random collection, the use of Lutz -Jaenicke's PRNGd is recommended. - -http://www.aet.tu-cottbus.de/personen/jaenicke/postfix_tls/prngd.html - -EGD: - -The Entropy Gathering Daemon (EGD) is supported if you have a system which -lacks /dev/random and don't want to use OpenSSH's internal entropy collection. - -http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/ - -S/Key Libraries: -http://www.sparc.spb.su/solaris/skey/ - -If you wish to use --with-skey then you will need the above library -installed. No other current S/Key library is currently known to be -supported. - -2. Building / Installation --------------------------- - -To install OpenSSH with default options: - -./configure -make -make install - -This will install the OpenSSH binaries in /usr/local/bin, configuration files -in /usr/local/etc, the server in /usr/local/sbin, etc. To specify a different -installation prefix, use the --prefix option to configure: - -./configure --prefix=/opt -make -make install - -Will install OpenSSH in /opt/{bin,etc,lib,sbin}. You can also override -specific paths, for example: - -./configure --prefix=/opt --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh -make -make install - -This will install the binaries in /opt/{bin,lib,sbin}, but will place the -configuration files in /etc/ssh. - -If you are using PAM, you may need to manually install a PAM control -file as "/etc/pam.d/sshd" (or wherever your system prefers to keep -them). Note that the service name used to start PAM is __progname, -which is the basename of the path of your sshd (e.g., the service name -for /usr/sbin/osshd will be osshd). If you have renamed your sshd -executable, your PAM configuration may need to be modified. - -A generic PAM configuration is included as "contrib/sshd.pam.generic", -you may need to edit it before using it on your system. If you are -using a recent version of Red Hat Linux, the config file in -contrib/redhat/sshd.pam should be more useful. Failure to install a -valid PAM file may result in an inability to use password -authentication. On HP-UX 11 and Solaris, the standard /etc/pam.conf -configuration will work with sshd (sshd will match the other service -name). - -There are a few other options to the configure script: - ---with-pam enables PAM support. - ---enable-gnome-askpass will build the GNOME passphrase dialog. You -need a working installation of GNOME, including the development -headers, for this to work. - ---with-prngd-socket=/some/file allows you to enable EGD or PRNGD -support and to specify a PRNGd socket. Use this if your Unix lacks -/dev/random and you don't want to use OpenSSH's builtin entropy -collection support. - ---with-prngd-port=portnum allows you to enable EGD or PRNGD support -and to specify a EGD localhost TCP port. Use this if your Unix lacks -/dev/random and you don't want to use OpenSSH's builtin entropy -collection support. - ---with-lastlog=FILE will specify the location of the lastlog file. -./configure searches a few locations for lastlog, but may not find -it if lastlog is installed in a different place. - ---without-lastlog will disable lastlog support entirely. - ---with-sia, --without-sia will enable or disable OSF1's Security -Integration Architecture. The default for OSF1 machines is enable. - ---with-kerberos4=PATH will enable Kerberos IV support. You will need -to have the Kerberos libraries and header files installed for this -to work. Use the optional PATH argument to specify the root of your -Kerberos installation. - ---with-afs=PATH will enable AFS support. You will need to have the -Kerberos IV and the AFS libraries and header files installed for this -to work. Use the optional PATH argument to specify the root of your -AFS installation. AFS requires Kerberos support to be enabled. - ---with-skey=PATH will enable S/Key one time password support. You will -need the S/Key libraries and header files installed for this to work. - ---with-tcp-wrappers will enable TCP Wrappers (/etc/hosts.allow|deny) -support. You will need libwrap.a and tcpd.h installed. - ---with-md5-passwords will enable the use of MD5 passwords. Enable this -if your operating system uses MD5 passwords without using PAM. - ---with-utmpx enables utmpx support. utmpx support is automatic for -some platforms. - ---without-shadow disables shadow password support. - ---with-ipaddr-display forces the use of a numeric IP address in the -$DISPLAY environment variable. Some broken systems need this. - ---with-default-path=PATH allows you to specify a default $PATH for sessions -started by sshd. This replaces the standard path entirely. - ---with-pid-dir=PATH specifies the directory in which the ssh.pid file is -created. - ---with-xauth=PATH specifies the location of the xauth binary - ---with-ipv4-default instructs OpenSSH to use IPv4 by default for new -connections. Normally OpenSSH will try attempt to lookup both IPv6 and -IPv4 addresses. On Linux/glibc-2.1.2 this causes long delays in name -resolution. If this option is specified, you can still attempt to -connect to IPv6 addresses using the command line option '-6'. - ---with-ssl-dir=DIR allows you to specify where your OpenSSL libraries -are installed. - ---with-4in6 Check for IPv4 in IPv6 mapped addresses and convert them to -real (AF_INET) IPv4 addresses. Works around some quirks on Linux. - ---with-opensc=DIR ---with-sectok=DIR allows for OpenSC or sectok smartcard libraries to -be used with OpenSSH. See 'README.smartcard' for more details. - -If you need to pass special options to the compiler or linker, you -can specify these as environment variables before running ./configure. -For example: - -CFLAGS="-O -m486" LDFLAGS="-s" LIBS="-lrubbish" LD="/usr/foo/ld" ./configure - -3. Configuration ----------------- - -The runtime configuration files are installed by in ${prefix}/etc or -whatever you specified as your --sysconfdir (/usr/local/etc by default). - -The default configuration should be instantly usable, though you should -review it to ensure that it matches your security requirements. - -To generate a host key, run "make host-key". Alternately you can do so -manually using the following commands: - - ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key -N "" - ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -N "" - ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -N "" - -Replacing /etc/ssh with the correct path to the configuration directory. -(${prefix}/etc or whatever you specified with --sysconfdir during -configuration) - -If you have configured OpenSSH with EGD support, ensure that EGD is -running and has collected some Entropy. - -For more information on configuration, please refer to the manual pages -for sshd, ssh and ssh-agent. - -4. Problems? ------------- - -If you experience problems compiling, installing or running OpenSSH. -Please refer to the "reporting bugs" section of the webpage at -http://www.openssh.com/ - - -$Id: INSTALL,v 1.54 2002/06/24 16:26:49 stevesk Exp $ |
