I saw an email on this list from a month or two ago about someone seeing the following error when running sshd -d (but saw no post about a solution): login_get_lastlog: Cannot find account for uid xxx I'm having the same problem and was wondering if a solution was found. I am running the latest (I think) tarball openssh-3.7.1p2-chroot.tar.gz If I have the user without the /./ in the path, he can login fine. If I use root and run chroot /his/path /bin/sh I get a working, chroot-ed shell. If I try to ssh I get immediately disconnected with the above error showing up in the log. Any suggestions on where to look? thanks, bob |

Try copying /etc/passwd into the chroot. Write back if that doesn't work. -James On Wednesday, October 8, 2003, at 07:48 AM, Bob Robison wrote: > > I saw an email on this list from a month or two ago about someone > seeing the following error when running sshd -d (but saw no post about > a solution): > > login_get_lastlog: Cannot find account for uid xxx > > I'm having the same problem and was wondering if a solution was found. > I am running the latest (I think) tarball > openssh-3.7.1p2-chroot.tar.gz > > If I have the user without the /./ in the path, he can login fine.

Sure James, here's mine anyway. My problem is a little different as in I can get a chroot via ssh but = cannot transfer using scp? Bob if you follow my structure you will be able to get a chrooted ssh connection. I get the following error when I try to transfer a file using winscp3 to = the linux box: ! unknown user 501 OS: Redhat 9 Ver: openssh-3.7.1p2-chroot Chroot structure [root@application /]# ls -Rl /trans /trans: total 16 drwx--x--- 2 root trans 4096 Sep 12 16:49 bin drwx--x--- 2 root trans 4096 Sep 12 17:50 etc drwxr-x--- 4 root trans 4096 Sep 12 15:28 home drwx--x--- 3 root trans 4096 Sep 12 13:55 lib /trans/bin: total 1400 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 626028 Sep 11 23:14 bash -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 47732 Sep 12 01:50 cp -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1671 Sep 12 18:02 groups -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14236 Sep 12 16:49 id -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 67668 Sep 12 01:36 ls -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 28504 Sep 12 13:51 scp -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 626028 Sep 12 01:17 sh /trans/etc: total 12 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 617 Sep 12 15:50 group -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1568 Sep 12 16:34 passwd -r-------- 1 root root 1088 Sep 12 16:34 shadow /trans/home: total 8 drwx------ 2 aer aer 4096 Sep 12 13:31 aer drwx------ 2 aer2 aer2 4096 Sep 12 15:02 aer2 /trans/home/aer: total 0 /trans/home/aer2: total 0 /trans/lib: total 1876 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 104560 Sep 12 13:42 ld-linux.so.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5572 Sep 12 13:54 libcom_err.so.3 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 969116 Sep 12 13:53 libcrypto.so.4 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15900 Sep 12 13:41 libdl.so.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 73724 Sep 12 13:55 = libgssapi_krb5.so.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 63880 Sep 12 13:54 libk5crypto.so.3 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 385220 Sep 12 13:53 libkrb5.so.3 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 91624 Sep 12 13:53 libnsl.so.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 76572 Sep 12 13:52 libresolv.so.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 11784 Sep 12 13:41 libtermcap.so.2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 12716 Sep 12 13:52 libutil.so.1 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 52616 Sep 12 13:53 libz.so.1 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 12 13:41 tls /trans/lib/tls: total 1508 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1536292 Sep 12 13:41 libc.so.6 -----Original Message----- From: chr...@li...

Well, fortunately for me the etc/passwd file did the trick for the ssh problem. I was then able to ssh into a chroot'ed shell as expected. I was really after scp or sftp as well. I was able to get sftp to work by re-arranging my directory structure somewhat. I originally had sftp-server in the chroot'ed file-system at /usr/local/libexec/sftp-server. However, I needed to move it to /usr/libexec/openssh/sftp-server, then I could use sftp (command line ftp-like interface) which is adequate for my needs. When I tried scp I got the similar problem with an error no the userid, but I didn't try to track it down very far. thanks everyone for the help! bob On Wed, 8 Oct 2003 16:36:21 +0100 "Niall O'Hara" <np...@ei...> wrote: > I was the one originally with this problem and copying etc/passwd doesn't > make any difference :( not for me anyway > > I never got a solution :( > > -----Original Message----- > From: chr...@li... > [mailto:chr...@li...] On Behalf Of James > Dennis > Sent: 08 October 2003 16:11 > To: Bob Robison > Cc: chr...@li... > Subject: Re: [Chrootssh-users] Cannot find account for uid > > > Try copying /etc/passwd into the chroot.
