RE: sshd and stack dump problem


Corinna,

Thanks for responding.  However, I've setup sshd
to run as a service under the system account so 
that I can log in via password mechanism under
different accounts, but a system account PID
cannot be easily killed by a regular account,
even if the regular account belongs to the administrative
group.

I may just have to run it under
a regular account and login as that account,
or an account that's been bumped up as per your
doc, either of which leaves sshd running
as a non-service process -- at least while
testing.

(I didn't have a script to pull out the pid,
but have tried repeatedly to 'kill #' after
ps -aef manually)

That's normal behaviour since sshd doesn't have a clue what
a NT service is. SRVANY stops but you will have to kill
the application by hand. Personally, I'm using the following
script to stop sshd:

	#!/bin/sh
	net stop sshd >/dev/null 2>&1
	PID=`ps -e | awk '/sshd/{print $1}'`
	if [ -n "${PID}" ]
	then
	  kill $PID
	fi

Sorry, I have no clue why ls hangs.
