[scponly] scponly-4.3 on HP-UX (11.11)

[christian.schwabl at chello.at]

Hello,

i recently had to compile scponly-4.3 on HP-UX (11.11 on PARISC with HP's C/Ansi-C Compiler).

Here is a list of problem i encounterd and how i solved them (no diffs/patches, i can provide those if someone tells me how to do this the best way....):

1) seteuid in scponly.c: There is no seteuid(..) under HP-UX, i replaced it with setuid(..), which should set the EUID under certain conditions

2) "extern int optreset;" in helper.c: optreset is not declared under HP-UX (maybe in some special getop packages), so i changed this to "int optreset;".  What is optreset used for?

3) LOG_PERROR and LOG_AUTHPRIV: These are not defined under HP-UX, i changed them to LOG_ALERT and LOG_AUTH

4) FILENAME_MAX: This is defined with "14", which makes some problems, for example i had a chrootet user with a homedir of /home/testscp//home/testscp, scponly chrooted to /home/testscp, which is correct but then stayed in / which is wrong.
According to IEEE Std. 1003.1, 2004 Edition, FILENAME_MAX is the "Maximum size in bytes of the longest filename string that the implementation guarantees can be opened."
I redefined FILENAME_MAX with 255

After these changes i was able to compile scponly and after some more work i had a working chrooted environment.

Is there any chance that such changes will be incorporated into the next release?
If more information is needed, feel free to contact me.

kind regards,
