i can't risk upgrading my remote machines, sofar this has happened twice while doing an update:
Stopping OpenBSD Secure Shell server: sshd. sh: /dev/tty: Device not configured sh: /dev/tty: Device not configured dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/ssh_1%3a1.2.3-9.4_i386.deb (--unpack): subprocess pre-installation script returned error exit status 30 sh: /dev/tty: Device not configured sh: /dev/tty: Device not configured dpkg: error while cleaning up: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 30 Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/ssh_1%3a1.2.3-9.4_i386.deb E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) i suppose i could fire up a SSH daemon on another port to let me into the system but any idea why its doing this ? i got the /dev/tty error on a bunch of other systems but it did not cause the ssh upgrade to error out(tonight i have upgraded 6 potato systems) on the first system this occured on i ran apt-get upgrade again manually and it brought up a screen about saying i have PermitRootLogin set to yes (its set to yes for rsync backups to preserve uid/gid/permissions), and just an OK prompt. once i hit OK its fine again. I figure i can do the same with this system but am curious why it errors out in the first place, previous ssh upgrades did not error out ! this is just a routine upgrade, from 2.2r4 to 2.2r5+security.org updates ... nate
