OpenSSH migration of user keys failure
Posted: Thu May 11, 2023 1:45 pm
It looks like there is a bug in the SSH$ROOT:[BIN]SSH$MIGRATION.COM procedure for OpenSSH. During the installation, when converting all users ssh keys, or while trying to convert a single users' keys, the error message is displayed and logged: "Cannot convert <user>'s key [.ssh2]<keyfile>.". Looking at the code, the conversion actually succeeds with a severity of "%I" not "%S", but the DCL code only checks for "%S": "if f$message(status, "SEVERITY") .eqs. "%S" -".
