open ssh on unixware 7.1.4
Hi all,

I am having some issues with openssh vers OpenSSH_4.6p1 on SCO unixware 7.1.4

when a user accesses the system via ssh and the password is incorrect and more attempts have been made that the lock out limit I find that although there are messages in the syslog the account does not lock out however they do for telnet.

My understanding of this is that ssh using different subsystems than the login / authentication mechanisms therefore I should not expect ssh to lockout the account.

I have been tasks with finding a solution and have been researchign PAM and the pam_tally module however I cannot find a pam_tall.so module that has been ported for the version of SCO or can I see it in /usr/lib/security/pam_*

Please can someone advise if they have had similar experiences or can suggest a solution or provide the pam_tally source code / ported version of pam_tally for SCO unixware ....

any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

chlawren.

gnome-ssh-askpass

GNOME-SSH-ASKPASS(1)					      General Commands Manual					      GNOME-SSH-ASKPASS(1)

NAME

       gnome-ssh-askpass - prompts a user for a passphrase using GNOME

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-ssh-askpass

DESCRIPTION

       gnome-ssh-askpass  is  a GNOME-based passphrase dialog for use with OpenSSH.  It is intended to be called by the ssh-add(1) program and not
       invoked directly.  It allows ssh-add(1) to obtain a passphrase from a user, even if not connected to a terminal (assuming that an X display
       is  available).	This happens automatically in the case where ssh-add is invoked from one's ~/.xsession or as one of the GNOME startup pro-
       grams, for example.

       In order to be called automatically by ssh-add, gnome-ssh-askpass should be installed as /usr/bin/ssh-askpass.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       The following environment variables are recognized:

       GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_SERVER
	      Causes gnome-ssh-askpass to grab the X server before asking for a passphrase.

       GNOME_SSH_ASKPASS_GRAB_POINTER
	      Causes gnome-ssh-askpass to grab the mouse pointer using gdk_pointer_grab() before asking for a passphrase.

       Regardless of whether either of these environment variables is set, gnome-ssh-askpass will grab the keyboard using gdk_keyboard_grab().

AUTHOR

       This manual page was written by Colin Watson <cjwatson@debian.org> for the Debian system (but may be used by others).  It was based on that
       for x11-ssh-askpass by Philip Hands.
