Dm shell doesnt work on Linux

[sudheerk84]

I have downloaded dm kernel and started it in Windows. Then when i connect using putty to 2401 I am able to connect to Dm shell

But teh same fails in vm node(with OS - Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2 (Tikanga))

It connects asks for username - i enter username followed by password , it just gets stuck and doesn't proceed.

I have confirmed with the IT Support and they have confirmed that the port is enabled on that machine.

How do i solve this ?

Hello,

Thanks for reporting the problem.

Just to clarify, in both cases you are connecting from a Windows machine using Putty?
It works when the server is running on Windows but not when it is on a virtual box running Red Hat?

Thanks, Chris.

Yes , in both cases i tried connecting from Windows using putty.

Yes it worked on windows but not on linux.

Hi,

Thanks for that. It's unusual that it is that way round, we have had trouble with the sshd server when running on windows but not so much on Linux. We have also had issues with Putty and there are two things you can try.

In Putty, enable the automatic CR option. See here: http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/...ml#config-crlf

If that dosn't work, give the cygwin ssh client a try. We have had far fewer issues with that one.

Apart from that you will just have to wait for future releases of the server under the Virgo name as we will keep moving up the version of Apache mini and sshd that we use.

With some more effort i am able to figure out the exact case

In Linux i am running the process in background and that seems to be the issue.

./bin/startup.sh -clean &

When i dont run in background i am able to connect even in linux.

But i want the process in background. Any help on that would be appreciated.

Hi,

I've been able to recreate this on a Mac, no virtual machine. Will investigate further.
