/bin/bash: Operation not permitted

/bin/bash: Operation not permitted

[michael pitoniak]

greetings,

 i have a really strange problem...i install the latest cygwin release
1.7.16(0.262/5/3) with the openssh option and configure it with ssh-host-config
on a 64 bit windows 7 system...it works perfectly for one day...allowing for
putty access after reboots and log in/out...yet when i come into work the next
day i can  log in via putty but instantly get thrown out with:

/bin/bash: Operation not permitted error.

attached is a debug trace of $ssh -vvv localhost -l michael.pitoniak that fails.

i suspect it has something to do wit anti virus software of public kyes...any
suggestions on how to further debug greatly appreciated...passwd files look the
same...really stumped here...

many thanks,

mp



michael.pitoniak@Pitoniak-wkst2 ~
$ ssh -vvv localhost -l michael.pitoniak

Complaints like this are typically caused by commands run by the interpreter
(bash in this case).  This could be caused by something in your rc files.
I'd check bash_profile and /etc/profile first but check them all if these
aren't the source.

Perhaps.  Let's start here:

If you can provide a detailed problem report, we can probably eliminate
allot of boilerplate questions back and forth if not find the problem.

[stephane]

I discovered my issue !

I needed to add my account that launch sshd service in "Replace a process
level token" in gpedit.msc

Case is closed !

/bin/bash: Operation not permitted

[Francis Korning]

Apologies for spamming but I think this fix needs to be automated in
ssh-host-config and updated in the cygwin FAQ.
Like many users I've been struggling with this obscure bug that allows one 
to log on with ssh only as the priviledged user (cyg_server in my case).
Attempts under another user succeed in all modes of authentication (password, 
RSA, DSA, whatever), but then get disconnected with the esoteric line:

/bin/bash: Operation not permitted

It turns out this has nothing to with bash, but rather with the usser 
cyg_server needing specific NTSEC rights to allow logons as other users.

The fix was found here:

http://www.tux.org/~mayer/cygwin/cygwin_sshd.pdf


Specifically, ssh-host-config needs these following lines:
editrights -a SeAssignPrimaryTokenPrivilege -u cyg_server
editrights -a SeCreateTokenPrivilege -u cyg_server
editrights -a SeTcbPrivilege -u cyg_server
editrights -a SeServiceLogonRight -u cyg_server


#editrights -l -u cyg_server

It is correct Achim,
however I have seen in corporate environment that some of those
setting were removed by security scripts...at every boot.
Very annoying

How about a check in the code of sshd to make sure it has the necessary
permissions?

I'm wondering if it would be better to do those check when it starts or
when someone logs in. The former would show the problem early but the
admin would have to look in the event log to see the error message
(especially after a reboot).

The latter would allow to send the error message to the local console
(local to the user, remote from the point of view of sshd) and there
would be a human who can read it.
