Re: using password aging with ssh



Gotten this from the release critical bugreport (last one):

Package: ssh (non-US/main)
Maintainer: Philip Hands <phil@hands.com>
[HELP] Need fix. (RB)
  51747  ssh: can't handle expired passwords
  64424  ssh:   ssh believes that xauth lives in /usr/openwin/bin
[STRATEGY] Needs to be recompiled for powerpc?
  66335  ssh: Segfault at fresh install


I guess this'll tell you enough...
