Post subject: password visible in ssh client Archived from groups: comp>os>linux>development>system (more info?)

Hi Everybody,
I am using ssh client on my target box to connect
another machine. I am able to connect, but the password is being shown
on the ssh client when i type the password. The file ssh.c has been
modified here, so I know that the problem can be over there in the
changes...
But can someone point to the circumstances the password is shown, from
terminal perspective? Then I can cross check if that is being done
here...
Thanks and Regards,
zix |

Usually, this would mean that the 'terminal' is configured to echo
input characters (see termios(3), ECHO) even while the password is
being typed. |

yes, we were doing fgets without disabling the echo in terminal. I
disabled the echo and reenabled after entering password. Its working
fine
Thanks a lot Rainer,
