>Description:
the sshd from openssh-2.1.1p4 (compiled under glibc 2.1.1) fails
under glibc-2.1.94 with this error message in syslog:
Sep 22 13:10:28 baileys sshd[24096]: fatal: get_sock_port: getnameinfo NI_NUMERICSERV failed
Recompiling it under glibc-2.1.94 does not fix the problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
compile and install openssh and try to "ssh localhost"
>Fix:
I have no idea.
