Installation Guide for V9.2-1 correction - OpenSSH setup
Posted: Sat May 06, 2023 8:53 pm
I see that the Installation Guide for x86_64 V9.2-1 (document DO-DVXINS-01A) suggests in
section 4.3 "Configuring VSI OpenSSH" to add the startup and ssh command definitions to
the end of the SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM file as -
$ @sys$common:[openssh.bin]SSH$STARTUP.COM
$ @sys$sysdevice:[vms$common.openssh.bin]SSH$DEFINE_COMMANDS
This second command file is pointless in the startup as it only defines the ssh commands
for the startup process.
Instead, the documentation should say to add the SSH$STARTUP.COM command to the
end of the SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM as
$ @sys$common:[openssh.bin]SSH$STARTUP.COM
and to add the command
@SSH$ROOT:[BIN]SSH$DEFINE_COMMANDS.COM
to the system-wide SYLOGIN.COM or a user's LOGIN.COM instead.
