- Subject: UID problem - ssh with a user with a large uid fails
Hi,
I have installed OpenSSh on a Win2k server.
I'm able to ssh with Administrator or user1, but with user2 and user3 I
get "closed by remote host" immediately after I login.
ssh -N work without problem.
I notice that in the event viewer I get "Cannot find account for uid
2505." But the uid for that user is 133577
Here are the passwd record for that user
user2:unused_by_nt/2000/xp:133577:10513:Artur
Pinheiro,U-BEPBC\user2,S-1-5-21-1687214194-3739405474-41422061-123577:/ssh:/ssh/switch
Notice the diffrence between 133577 and 123577
The main difference between user1 and user2 & user3 is that in user1,
the user part in the SID is smaller.
user1: S-1-5-21-1687214194-3739405474-41422061-4804
user2: S-1-5-21-1687214194-3739405474-41422061-123577
user3: S-1-5-21-1687214194-3739405474-41422061-242181
Is there any limitation in the user part of the SID?
Thanks
