Hi,

I have posted this a couple of months ago on 'comp.sys.ncr'. I attach it here.

That was for 'f-secure' ssh 3.0 ( www.f-secure.com ).

(Which should be quite the same as the 'ssh' version ( www.ssh.com )

For Open SSH we did not make much effort.

sh

Here are 'what-did-de-do' instructions 'as-far-as-I-remeber' to get the F-Secure ssh2 v3.0 compiled for MP/RAS. The most common communication we have tested and it seems to work OK.

1) The source kit must be acquired - see www.f-secure.com

2) There were suggested patches for NCR platform in file ssh-3.0.1/lib/sshsession/wtmp.c - note that the NCR MP/RAS is not included in F-Secure standard support set.

Include these with 'patch' command (GNU version or standard - I do not know) or edit by hand.

# patch -p 1 < /path/to/patch-3.0.1-NCR

3) The target MP/RAS system contained the NCR 'cc' compiler and make command, which were OK for compilation. (NCR High Performance C Compiler R3.0c')

4) The configure command for 'ssh' should be entered in the 'ssh' source directory.

configure i86pc

(... well the NCR is a bunch of Pentium nodes - If you do not specify any host arguments, the configure terminates quite soon with message like 'unkonw host')

5) Before you make you must edit by hand the file:

"lib/sshutil/sshincludes_unix.h" otherwise you brake your 'make' execution and get error messages when compiling:

E "../../../lib/sshutil/sshincludes_unix.h",L243/C1(#704): Output >from #er"

The repair is made by deleting lines 239 - 244 from the file lib/sshutil/sshincludes_unix.h The deleted stuff is like:

#ifdef STAT_MACROS_BROKEN
...
#endif /* STAT_MACROS_BROKEN */

6) Now the command 'make' should complete succesfully and you can install the binaries as suggested in the 'ssh' installation instructions.
