HP-UX Secure Shell A.04.30.006 and A.04.30.007 Release Notes

HP-UX Secure Shell A.04.30.006 and A.04.30.007
Known Problems and Workarounds
Chapter16
•The chroot functionality does not work if the UseLogin
configuration directive in sshd_config is set to YES.
• In a chroot-ed environment, users do not see a subset of syslog
messages. HP-UX Secure Shell writes syslog messages at the time of
authentication and when the session is terminated. The syslogd
daemon reads the syslog messages written by all subsystems and
reports it to the /dev/log file. In a chroot-ed environment, the sshd
daemon writes its syslog messages to <newroot>/dev/log. It is not
possible to link the <newroot>/dev/log file to the /dev/log file,
resulting in users not being able to view the subset of syslog
messages.
Workaround: There is no workaround for this problem. Users of
chroot-ed HP-UX Secure Shell environments must be aware that a
subset of messages written by the sshd daemon will not show up in
syslog.
