8bc7973f | 1 | 1. Prerequisites |
2 | ---------------- | |
3 | ||
4 | You will need working installations of Zlib and OpenSSL. | |
5 | ||
5c7fc85d | 6 | Zlib 1.1.4 or 1.2.1.2 or greater (ealier 1.2.x versions have problems): |
aff51935 | 7 | http://www.gzip.org/zlib/ |
8bc7973f | 8 | |
4ca33cc5 | 9 | OpenSSL 0.9.6 or greater: |
8bc7973f | 10 | http://www.openssl.org/ |
11 | ||
aff51935 | 12 | (OpenSSL 0.9.5a is partially supported, but some ciphers (SSH protocol 1 |
d40af5fa | 13 | Blowfish) do not work correctly.) |
c323ac76 | 14 | |
10f1064f | 15 | The remaining items are optional. |
16 | ||
8bc7973f | 17 | OpenSSH can utilise Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) if your system |
ca86bb3f | 18 | supports it. PAM is standard on Redhat and Debian Linux, Solaris and |
19 | HP-UX 11. | |
8bc7973f | 20 | |
aff51935 | 21 | NB. If you operating system supports /dev/random, you should configure |
22 | OpenSSL to use it. OpenSSH relies on OpenSSL's direct support of | |
23 | /dev/random. If you don't you will have to rely on ssh-rand-helper, which | |
230c7a8f | 24 | is inferior to a good kernel-based solution. |
25 | ||
8bc7973f | 26 | PAM: |
27 | http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/ | |
28 | ||
1a317551 | 29 | If you wish to build the GNOME passphrase requester, you will need the GNOME |
8bc7973f | 30 | libraries and headers. |
31 | ||
32 | GNOME: | |
33 | http://www.gnome.org/ | |
34 | ||
f2422cee | 35 | Alternatively, Jim Knoble <jmknoble@pobox.com> has written an excellent X11 |
ff8ecdb8 | 36 | passphrase requester. This is maintained separately at: |
1a317551 | 37 | |
fd79af78 | 38 | http://www.jmknoble.net/software/x11-ssh-askpass/ |
1a317551 | 39 | |
e1dd3a7a | 40 | PRNGD: |
41 | ||
aff51935 | 42 | If your system lacks Kernel based random collection, the use of Lutz |
e1dd3a7a | 43 | Jaenicke's PRNGd is recommended. |
44 | ||
45 | http://www.aet.tu-cottbus.de/personen/jaenicke/postfix_tls/prngd.html | |
46 | ||
47 | EGD: | |
48 | ||
e93ee87a | 49 | The Entropy Gathering Daemon (EGD) is supported if you have a system which |
50 | lacks /dev/random and don't want to use OpenSSH's internal entropy collection. | |

53 | ||
3e366738 | 54 | S/Key Libraries: |
07f804af | 55 | |
f2637973 | 56 | If you wish to use --with-skey then you will need the library below |
57 | installed. No other S/Key library is currently known to be supported. | |
07f804af | 58 | |
3e366738 | 59 | http://www.sparc.spb.su/solaris/skey/ |
60 | ||
59031773 | 61 | LibEdit: |
e02505e2 | 62 | |
63 | sftp supports command-line editing via NetBSD's libedit. If your platform | |
64 | has it available natively you can use that, alternatively you might try | |
65 | these multi-platform ports: | |
07f804af | 66 | |
59031773 | 67 | http://www.thrysoee.dk/editline/ |
68 | http://sourceforge.net/projects/libedit/ | |
69 | ||
10f1064f | 70 | Autoconf: |
71 | ||
90f321a4 | 72 | If you modify configure.ac or configure doesn't exist (eg if you checked |
44064ac4 | 73 | the code out of CVS yourself) then you will need autoconf-2.60 to rebuild |
10f1064f | 74 | the automatically generated files by running "autoreconf". |
75 | ||
76 | http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/ | |
77 | ||
8e700494 | 78 | Basic Security Module (BSM): |
79 | ||
80 | Native BSM support is know to exist in Solaris from at least 2.5.1, | |
81 | FreeBSD 6.1 and OS X. Alternatively, you may use the OpenBSM | |
82 | implementation (http://www.openbsm.org). | |
83 | ||

8bc7973f | 85 | 2. Building / Installation |
86 | -------------------------- | |
87 | ||
88 | To install OpenSSH with default options: | |
89 | ||
90 | ./configure | |
91 | make | |
92 | make install | |
93 | ||
94 | This will install the OpenSSH binaries in /usr/local/bin, configuration files | |
95 | in /usr/local/etc, the server in /usr/local/sbin, etc. To specify a different | |
96 | installation prefix, use the --prefix option to configure: | |
97 | ||
98 | ./configure --prefix=/opt | |
99 | make | |
100 | make install | |
101 | ||
aff51935 | 102 | Will install OpenSSH in /opt/{bin,etc,lib,sbin}. You can also override |
8bc7973f | 103 | specific paths, for example: |
104 | ||
105 | ./configure --prefix=/opt --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh | |
106 | make | |
107 | make install | |
108 | ||
109 | This will install the binaries in /opt/{bin,lib,sbin}, but will place the | |
110 | configuration files in /etc/ssh. | |
111 | ||
ad6a7661 | 112 | If you are using Privilege Separation (which is enabled by default) |
113 | then you will also need to create the user, group and directory used by | |
114 | sshd for privilege separation. See README.privsep for details. | |
115 | ||
4b28be2c | 116 | If you are using PAM, you may need to manually install a PAM control |
117 | file as "/etc/pam.d/sshd" (or wherever your system prefers to keep | |
118 | them). Note that the service name used to start PAM is __progname, | |
119 | which is the basename of the path of your sshd (e.g., the service name | |
120 | for /usr/sbin/osshd will be osshd). If you have renamed your sshd | |
121 | executable, your PAM configuration may need to be modified. | |
122 | ||
123 | A generic PAM configuration is included as "contrib/sshd.pam.generic", | |
124 | you may need to edit it before using it on your system. If you are | |
125 | using a recent version of Red Hat Linux, the config file in | |
126 | contrib/redhat/sshd.pam should be more useful. Failure to install a | |
127 | valid PAM file may result in an inability to use password | |
128 | authentication. On HP-UX 11 and Solaris, the standard /etc/pam.conf | |
129 | configuration will work with sshd (sshd will match the other service | |
ca86bb3f | 130 | name). |
529c5440 | 131 | |
8bc7973f | 132 | There are a few other options to the configure script: |
133 | ||
8e700494 | 134 | --with-audit=[module] enable additional auditing via the specified module. |
135 | Currently, drivers for "debug" (additional info via syslog) and "bsm" | |
136 | (Sun's Basic Security Module) are supported. | |
137 | ||
0a23d79f | 138 | --with-pam enables PAM support. If PAM support is compiled in, it must |
139 | also be enabled in sshd_config (refer to the UsePAM directive). | |
8bc7973f | 140 | |
aff51935 | 141 | --with-prngd-socket=/some/file allows you to enable EGD or PRNGD |
142 | support and to specify a PRNGd socket. Use this if your Unix lacks | |
143 | /dev/random and you don't want to use OpenSSH's builtin entropy | |
9bdd5929 | 144 | collection support. |
145 | ||
aff51935 | 146 | --with-prngd-port=portnum allows you to enable EGD or PRNGD support |
147 | and to specify a EGD localhost TCP port. Use this if your Unix lacks | |
148 | /dev/random and you don't want to use OpenSSH's builtin entropy | |
e1dd3a7a | 149 | collection support. |
8bc7973f | 150 | |
aff51935 | 151 | --with-lastlog=FILE will specify the location of the lastlog file. |
0bc5b6fb | 152 | ./configure searches a few locations for lastlog, but may not find |
153 | it if lastlog is installed in a different place. | |
154 | ||
155 | --without-lastlog will disable lastlog support entirely. | |
156 | ||
aff51935 | 157 | --with-osfsia, --without-osfsia will enable or disable OSF1's Security |
99c8ddac | 158 | Integration Architecture. The default for OSF1 machines is enable. |
159 | ||
aff51935 | 160 | --with-skey=PATH will enable S/Key one time password support. You will |
3e366738 | 161 | need the S/Key libraries and header files installed for this to work. |
721c55f0 | 162 | |
163 | --with-tcp-wrappers will enable TCP Wrappers (/etc/hosts.allow|deny) | |
164 | support. You will need libwrap.a and tcpd.h installed. | |
165 | ||
166 | --with-md5-passwords will enable the use of MD5 passwords. Enable this | |
f8ec2373 | 167 | if your operating system uses MD5 passwords and the system crypt() does |
168 | not support them directly (see the crypt(3/3c) man page). If enabled, the | |
169 | resulting binary will support both MD5 and traditional crypt passwords. | |
045672f9 | 170 | |
aff51935 | 171 | --with-utmpx enables utmpx support. utmpx support is automatic for |
0bc5b6fb | 172 | some platforms. |
173 | ||
174 | --without-shadow disables shadow password support. | |
175 | ||
aff51935 | 176 | --with-ipaddr-display forces the use of a numeric IP address in the |
0bc5b6fb | 177 | $DISPLAY environment variable. Some broken systems need this. |
178 | ||
179 | --with-default-path=PATH allows you to specify a default $PATH for sessions | |
bd499f9e | 180 | started by sshd. This replaces the standard path entirely. |
0bc5b6fb | 181 | |
47e45e44 | 182 | --with-pid-dir=PATH specifies the directory in which the ssh.pid file is |
183 | created. | |
184 | ||
185 | --with-xauth=PATH specifies the location of the xauth binary | |
186 | ||
d581b7ae | 187 | --with-ssl-dir=DIR allows you to specify where your OpenSSL libraries |
188 | are installed. | |
189 | ||
c7ad0d99 | 190 | --with-ssl-engine enables OpenSSL's (hardware) ENGINE support |
191 | ||
b7a9ce47 | 192 | --with-4in6 Check for IPv4 in IPv6 mapped addresses and convert them to |
193 | real (AF_INET) IPv4 addresses. Works around some quirks on Linux. | |
194 | ||
295c8801 | 195 | --with-opensc=DIR |
196 | --with-sectok=DIR allows for OpenSC or sectok smartcard libraries to | |
197 | be used with OpenSSH. See 'README.smartcard' for more details. | |
198 | ||
d94aa2ae | 199 | If you need to pass special options to the compiler or linker, you |
c04f75f1 | 200 | can specify these as environment variables before running ./configure. |
d94aa2ae | 201 | For example: |
202 | ||
b817711d | 203 | CFLAGS="-O -m486" LDFLAGS="-s" LIBS="-lrubbish" LD="/usr/foo/ld" ./configure |
8bc7973f | 204 | |
205 | 3. Configuration | |
206 | ---------------- | |
207 | ||
aff51935 | 208 | The runtime configuration files are installed by in ${prefix}/etc or |
8bc7973f | 209 | whatever you specified as your --sysconfdir (/usr/local/etc by default). |
210 | ||
aff51935 | 211 | The default configuration should be instantly usable, though you should |
8bc7973f | 212 | review it to ensure that it matches your security requirements. |
213 | ||
6bf4d066 | 214 | To generate a host key, run "make host-key". Alternately you can do so |
aff51935 | 215 | manually using the following commands: |
3e807d1e | 216 | |
af8fda37 | 217 | ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key -N "" |
218 | ssh-keygen -t rsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key -N "" | |
219 | ssh-keygen -t dsa -f /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key -N "" | |
3e807d1e | 220 | |
7303768f | 221 | Replacing /etc/ssh with the correct path to the configuration directory. |
aff51935 | 222 | (${prefix}/etc or whatever you specified with --sysconfdir during |
7303768f | 223 | configuration) |
224 | ||
60d804c8 | 225 | If you have configured OpenSSH with EGD support, ensure that EGD is |
226 | running and has collected some Entropy. | |
227 | ||
aff51935 | 228 | For more information on configuration, please refer to the manual pages |
8bc7973f | 229 | for sshd, ssh and ssh-agent. |
230 | ||
d7cfdd7c | 231 | 4. (Optional) Send survey |
232 | ------------------------- | |
233 | ||
234 | $ make survey | |
e02505e2 | 235 | [check the contents of the file "survey" to ensure there's no information |
236 | that you consider sensitive] | |
d7cfdd7c | 237 | $ make send-survey |
238 | ||
239 | This will send configuration information for the currently configured | |
240 | host to a survey address. This will help determine which configurations | |
241 | are actually in use, and what valid combinations of configure options | |
242 | exist. The raw data is available only to the OpenSSH developers, however | |
243 | summary data may be published. | |
244 | ||
245 | 5. Problems? | |
7303768f | 246 | ------------ |
247 | ||
aff51935 | 248 | If you experience problems compiling, installing or running OpenSSH. |
7303768f | 249 | Please refer to the "reporting bugs" section of the webpage at |
