As has been repeatedly pointed out, the implementations that existed
when the draft first appeared (and did *not* include the des-cbc cipher)
were of a different, if ancestral protocol; they would quite simply not
interoperate with an implementation of the protocol described by this
year's (or last year's!) drafts.

The people who maintain those implementations are parties to this process;
they had their chance to fix their implementation long ago; they didn't
(accidentally, it seems).  Nonetheless, why bend the protocol to suit
their implementation?  Would you suggest that we document or even require
every *other* rejected protocol feature that those implementations support
(or once supported) just to avoid causing them inconvenience?  That seems
wrong, particularly (and maybe this is just my personal bias showing, but I
have a *big* smoking hole in my pocket here...) given the lengths some
of those implementors went to to cause trouble for other implementors of
the protocol, for which so far as I know none of us have received so 
much as a simple apology.  Heck, so far as I know, they *still* might
slap me with a specious lawsuit next week!  Why should the other participants
in this group, pretty much all of whom are in the same situation, and some
of whom maintain an implementation that's freely available and *wildly* more
popular than the noncompliant ones in question, pretend there's consensus
to include des-cbc in the protocol when there's clearly not?  There is no
compelling technical reason; and unfortunately for your position, I suspect 
that even if they are not undiplomatic enough to say so, many others in 
this group feel as I do: the people who would most benefit from this are not 
people to whom we are prone to do any favors.

implementations pre-dating the first draft can never be compliant,
since they won't be using the correct session id, for example.

So, this being "ancestral", seems like it would be appropriate to list
them (in the IANA registry once it exists) as Historic.

Ran pointed out to me that a strict reading of the spec as it stands
now would be that interoperable implementations otherwise compliant to
the spec become non-compliant simply because they offer to use
"des-cbc" as a crypto algorithm in addition to (for example) 3des.

This strikes me as unnecessarily harsh, in particular because the
language in the architecture draft stating that un-@-qualified ssh
protocol names are assigned soley by IETF consensus is significantly
more recent than the current generation of the protocol (to my
knowledge, it was first discussed in detail around the time of the San
Diego ietf about a year ago).

Before that text was added to the draft, the use of non-@-qualified
names was designated as "assigned by IANA"; this turns out to have
very little meaning -- as IANA requires guidance from the IETF in how
to do these assignments, and no such registry exists (and it won't
exist until our documents get to the IESG).  So it strikes me as
unnecessarily restrictive to attempt to exert retroactive control
here.

Anyhow, RFC2026 says about the "historic" designation:

   A specification that has been superseded by a more recent
   specification or is for any other reason considered to be obsolete
   is assigned to the "Historic" level.

This seems to fit the situation closely; also, according to Jeff
Schiller, it is possible for RFC's to be "born historic".

What does this mean for the specs:

 - No change is necessary to the core protocol drafts.

 - The working group needs to allocate "des-cbc" as historic
   (deprecated) and/or Not Recommended

 - an additional working group document (which I believe Ran has
volunteered to write) would designate des-cbc as historic and
deprecated, and would be intended for publication as a Historic RFC.

Good.

My preference would be for Historic and Not Recommended.

I'm happy with that as an outcome since it makes the status of desc-cbc
clear and it doesn't require further changes to the core drafts.

Ran if you wish I could help out with the editiing of the new draft since
I have everything setup (including references) for generating the core
drafts.

I don't want to object to your proposed resolution for this issue, but
I want to point out that even if the IANA considerations section of
older drafts was quite vague, I think the algorithm naming section
makes it pretty clear. My reading of that is all valid names are
defined either

* directly in in the spec (these names will turn up in the initial
  IANA approved list whenever the IANA registration process is
  opened), or

* by IANA registration (and this set of names have so far always been
  empty as no registration process have ever been started), or

* by using the @-form.

From draft-ietf-secsh-architecture-02.txt, section 5 (the oldest
architecture draft I have around):

: There are two formats for algorithm names:
: 
: o  Names that do not contain an at-sign (@) are reserved to be assigned
:    by IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority).  Examples include
:    `3des-cbc', `sha-1', `hmac-sha1', and `zlib' (the quotes are not part
:    of the name).  Additional names of this format may be registered with
:    IANA; see Section ``IANA Considerations''.  Names of this format MUST
:    NOT be used without first registering with IANA.  Registered names
:    MUST NOT contain an at-sign (@) or a comma (,).
: 
: o  Anyone can define additional algorithms by using names in the format
:    name@domainname, e.g. "ourcipher-cbc@ssh.fi". The format of the part
:    preceding the at sign is not specified; it MUST consist of US-ASCII
:    characters except at-sign and comma. The part following the at-sign
:    MUST be a valid fully qualified internet domain name [RFC-1034]
:    controlled by the person or organization defining the name. It is up
:    to each domain how it manages its local namespace.

If anyone can explain how to read that as allowing the unregistered
name `des-cbc', please mail me privately, I hope we need not discuss
that anymore on this list.

Regards,
/Niels

The ietf-ssh@netbsd.org mailing list is for discussion of the network
protocol issues.  The network protocol does not deal with host based
access control mechanisms such as a DenyUsers setting.

If you are using OpenSSH then a more appropriate mailing list would
be openssh-dev-unix@mindrot.org.  Or try usenet group comp.protocols.ssh

A Working Group Last Call begins today and will end in two weeks for
the following four drafts:

	draft-ietf-secsh-architecture-11.txt
	draft-ietf-secsh-transport-11.txt
	draft-ietf-secsh-userauth-13.txt
	draft-ietf-secsh-connect-14.txt

I believe that these documents likely the current consensus of the
working group and should be submitted to the IESG for consideration
for publication as a Proposed Standard RFC.

Comments regarding the content of these documents should be sent to
the working group mailing list, <ietf-ssh@netbsd.org>.  If you believe
a change to a document is necessary, please include revised wording
along with your comment.

This Last Call period extends until December 18th, 2001.

Yep that should indeed say "session identifier". It was missing because
the doc sources that I started with had this surrounded by <it></it>
for some reason, as a result the xml2rfc program ignores it because it
doesn't understand the <it> tag, oops.

I'll have to wait until after the SLC IETF meeting before reissuing the
draft - it will also be good to wait until the 18th anyway for any 
issues resulting from last call.

I observe that there hasn't been any recent discussion of the GSS document
(dated July 20, 2001).  The only implementation I'm aware of, Simon
Wilkinson's patch for openssh, dates from before that and so I suspect
doesn't conform to -02.  I'm curious whether there are known open issues
that would prevent this document from going to WG Last Call, as I would
like to see it advance.  It looks OK to me, but I'm not enough of an ssh
expert to judge.

Thanks,

 - RL "Bob"

I am not aware of any outstanding issues with the keyboard-interactive
draft. And there are multiple independent implementations. I therefore
think this draft is also ready for final-call once the core-drafts are
done.

A reminder that the early registration for Connectathon closes at the
end of this month

I would like to see all of the vendors who implement the SSH protocol
to attend this is a good opportunity to debug and fix interoper
problems.

The testing will include the 4 core drafts, sftp, and keyboard
interactive.  If there is interest we may also be able to test
the GSS drafts since there will be a Kerberos infrastructure at
connectathon.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------
The Connectathon team is delighted to announce its 16th annual event
will take place as scheduled.  Connectathon 2002, an interoperability
testing event for engineers only, will be held Feb. 28-Mar. 7, 2002 in
San Jose, California.  Sponsored by Sun Microsystems, Inc., Connectathon
hosts over 50 companies from around the globe in an effort to test and
debug source code.  Currently, the following technologies and protocols
are on the agenda:

NFS versions 2, 3 and 4
NFS over RDMA
WebNFS
Lock Manager
NIS/NIS+
Automounter
Kerberos
IPv6
IPsec
Mobile IPv4
Mobile IPv6
Secure Shell
NDMP

Based on demand, in addition we are considering to offer:

Service Location Protocol
Diameter/AAA
CIFS
ATM

If you are interested in testing any of the above 4 protocols, please
send a note to Cthon@Sun.com and we'll gauge interest.  Or if you have a
suggestion for another technology, feel free to contact us as well.

Testing continues 24 hours per day.  Technology testing coordinators
will organize testing procedures and test suite material.  In addition,
there will be seminars with speakers addressing various topics.

The registration deadline is February 7, 2002.  An Early Bird Discount
on station fees is available to those who register and pay by December
31, 2001.  For registration information, please see our web site at
http://www.connectathon.org.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Audrey Van
Belleghem at audrey@vanb.com or (408) 358-9598.

There are a couple of open issues.  I'll try to mention them at the
working group meeting (in about 10 minutes).  Most of them are minor,
though, so I agree that it would be good to last call this draft after the
next version is published.

The current published patch doesn't conform to -02. I have a patch that does,
and also resolves some PAM chain issues. It should be published shortly,
after the changes affecting GSI support have been checked. I'd be happy
to send a copy of my current code to anyone who's interested.

Cheers,

Simon.

The Secure Shell [secsh] working group met on monday afternoon.  The
ssh core drafts are in WG last call (ending next week) and appear to
be extremely close to done, and the same appears to be true for about
half of the extension drafts.  One new technical issue with the core
drafts was raised during the meeting which will require a respin of
the userauth draft; Jeffrey Hutzelman will describe this issue in more
detail for the list.

Once the core drafts are out of WG last call, we'll start last calls
on the extensions drafts which appear to be done (key file format, dh
group negotiation, keyboard-interactive); gssapi should be next
(authors indicate that there are a few minor issues to resolve).  sftp
and dns key storage both need a bit more work; we expect revised
drafts by the next IETF meeting.

If I remeber correctly the author of the DNS host key storage draft
said that the have no intention of continuting with it in its current
form and that the draft will be left to expire unchanged.  They wish
to go back to requirements gathering and this may result in solving
the problem space a different way (ie maybe not DNS as I gathered).

I also volunteered to start a new draft for agent forwarding -
requirements for this will be done via this list with at least an 00
draft by next meeting.

At the DNSEXT meeting, there was a (mildly surreal) exchange where
they attempted to not allow "yucky applications", like SSH, to
store keys in DNS.  They claimed to want to dodge that work
by waiting until the apps asked for it, and when several people
in the room pointed out that people in the SSH wg were talking
about it, this got ignored.

So I think we need to have something, requirements or whatever,
that we whack the DNSEXT wg with, so they know we're thinking
about it, regardless of what 'we' want to do.

That is the idea, and what I'm in the process of doing, but for a larger
group of applications, not just SSH. I was also told after the meeting,
that I could gut the current draft and re-write it to keep the title,
which I might infact do and turn it into a requirements document. Is
that reasonable?

DNS implementors are very concerned about the size of the zone files
which will need to be protected by DNSSEC.  I believe that this is the
primary reason why any application specific information such as keys
or certificates are desired to not be in DNS.

and protecting, for example, the ssh keys describing my routers
is something I would consider high priority to store in my zone.

In a world where google can keep 9,610 hits on "rodney thayer"
I find it difficult to get excited about the cost of storing the
ssh keys for my routing infrastructure servers, for example.

But, the SSH-specific point, if there's consensus, is that there
is a application user need for this, and that is the thing the DNSEXT
group was asking for.

this might be a problem for large TLDs, but I do not think this is a big
issue for normal use. the zone files will increase in size, but will not
grow out of what is manageable.

Regarding the Secure Shell I-D's presently in WG Last Call:

The name "SSH" is, and always has been, a major identifier of SSH
Communications Security Corp. To protect the identifier in commercial
settings, we have obtained trademark registration for the name in the
United States, Europe, and Japan.

The Secure Shell protocol has often been referred to with the name
"SSH". This has not always been a source of confusion, as until some
time ago we were the only major source of products associated with the
Secure Shell protocol.  Another reason adding to the confusion is that
the user base of Secure Shell products has only recently grown well
outside the group of early adopters who know the technology and the
field.

Presently, with the user base continually growing, the confusion of
the protocol and a major participant in the field is real and
increasing.  We note that the confusion affects all producers of
Secure Shell products - we often get the blame as well as the praise
for products made by others. This is not a benefit for anyone.

Official names in standard documents have a large influence on the
usage of terms in everyday practice.  Therefore, we present the wish
that the IETF would not elect to support the present situation and the
continuing increase in the confusion.  We note that RFC 2026, section
10.1, states that

   In all matters of intellectual property rights and procedures, the
   intention is to benefit the Internet community and the public at
   large, while respecting the legitimate rights of others.

To minimize the confusion and to reach the objectives of that section, we
propose that the official name of the protocol - which is defined by the
titles of the corresponding Internet Drafts - be changed to refer to
"Secure Shell".

I have a question.  Once the term "ssh" has been used a port name
identifier in our /etc/services for years and years, and that tag has
been in the public domain for such a long time that a trademark wouldn't
necessarily be enforceable?

Hey, look!  Their low-quality, high-priced lawyers told them to "assert
their trademark rights" again in Yet Another feeble attempt to cover
up the fact that they screwed up.

Once more, folks, the real deal on this:

1) They have no trademark on "ssh" nor on "SSH".  They have only a
   trademark on *one particular typed representation* of the letters
   "ssh", as used in their corporate logo.

2) They have fraudulently claimed here and elsewhere that they own the
   name "ssh" and that nobody else can use it, when in fact they own
   only the rights to one particular drawing of those glyphs.

3) They have wasted countless time, effort, and money of the other
   participants in this working group with specious threats of legal
   action here and elsewhere.  Unfortunately, even their own law firm
   admits, in those very threats, that:

4) "SSH" is an abbreviation for "Secure Shell", and thus...

5) "SSH" cannot be trademarked, as abbreviations cannot be trademarked.

Need I mention that 6) "Secure Shell" is a generic term, which cannot be
trademarked, thus rendering this whole debate even more idiotic?

I have supplied copious documentation of all of these points both in this
forum and (with the help of Jason Thorpe) at an IETF meeting.  This
documentation has included copies of all trademark files, with full history,
for any mark containing "ssh" in its description, as well as copies of
extensive correspondence with attorneys, including the "smoking gun" letter
in which SSH's own counsel admits that "ssh" is an abbreviation.

As evidence of further duplicity, while originally attempting to coerce
this working group into changing the name of the protocol to "Secure Shell",
these same parties had a *pending trademark application for "Secure Shell"*.

This kind of continued harassment of other IETF participants is completely
unconscionable.  It is *precisely* why the IETF should have a policy
requiring authors or editors of standards-track documents to disclaim
trademark rights to the words used in the document title and to the protocol
name.  Unfortunately, when I last brought this up in POISSON, which our WG
chair suggested was the proper forum for these concerns, I was pretty much 
shouted down.

Perhaps the continued existence of the problem (unethical draft 
authors/editors naming protocols/standards so as to set up intellectual
property ambushes for other implementors) will serve to help persuade that
the problem is real, and that some solution needs to be found.

For the moment, it would be nice if *this particular* harassment would
stop, before it wastes enough of my time and money that it becomes
economical for me to simply seek a declaratory judgement to shut these
idiots up.  My lawyer is a nice guy and I don't like wasting his time
dealing with the corporate drone morons who are milking SSH Comm Oy for
billable hours after their own mistakes have helped make their own client's
position not only unethical, but also totally untenable.

Just before the meeting in SLC,
I discovered a flaw in the userauth
protocol while reviewing outstanding
issues for the gss draft, and we
spent some time discussing this
at the meeting.

I was asked to summarize the problem
for the list -- I've since reread the
userauth draft and am not sure if the
problem really exists.

So, here goes --

The problem, as discussed in the meeting,
is that the client is allowed to send
multiple outstanding requests.

So, lets say there is an authentication
method "x", which requires multiple
messages to be sent, and uses message
number 61 for the server to request
additional information from the client,
which is sent by the client using
message number 62.

Let's also say there is a different
method, "y", which also uses message
number 61 for the server to request
additional information from the client,
and message number 62 for the client
to send that information.

So, if the client sends "x" and then "y",
the server will respond to "x" with
a message 61 and than to y with a
packet type 61.

Now the client sends a packet 62 to
the server.  However, the server
has no way to determine if packet
62 goes with request "x" or request
"y".

----
Now, for the relevant texts from the draft,
that make this impossible, and make the
problem (mostly) go away:

The userauth draft contains the following text
in section 2.1:

   An authentication request MAY result in a further exchange of
   messages.  All such messages depend on the authentication method
   used, and the client MAY at any time continue with a new
   SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST message, in which case the server MUST
   abandon the previous authentication attempt and continue with the new
   one.

and in 2.2:

   The client MAY send several authentication requests without waiting
   for responses from previous requests.  The server MUST acknowledge
   any failed requests with a SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_FAILURE message.
   However, SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_SUCCESS MUST be sent only once, and once
   SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_SUCCESS has been sent, any further authentication
   requests received after that SHOULD be silently ignored.

So as soon as the client sends "y", the server
discards "x".

---
The only real problem is that it is unclear
what should happen in the event that a implementation
receives "y" before it has finished processing
"x" -- in most unix implementations this isn't
possible, but in a NT implementation it is
much more likely (to be possible.)

Should the server discard (and fail) "x", aborting
any processing being done on it, or, should
it finish processing "x" and then only process
"y" if "x" wasn't sufficient to authenticate
the user?

I would suggest the following wording change for
section 2.2:

   The client MAY send several authentication requests
   without waiting for responses from previous requests.
   The server MUST process each request completely and
   acknowledge any failed requests with a
   SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_FAILURE message before processing the
   next request.

   A request that results in further exchange of messages
   will be aborted by second request, so it is not possible
   to send a second request without waiting for a response
   from the server, if the first request will result in
   further exchange of messages.  No SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_FAILURE
   message will be sent for the aborted method.

   SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_SUCCESS MUST be sent only once, and once
   SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_SUCCESS has been sent, any further authentication
   requests received after that SHOULD be silently ignored.

This clarifies that the SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST 
packet must be completely processed before considering
further requests (which might abort the method
started by the SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST packet.)

And that if a method is abandoned due to a
new SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST being received,
there is no notification of such to the client.

A couple comments on the wording:

   A request that results in further exchange of messages
   will be aborted by second request

by "a" second request ?

   so it is not possible
   to send a second request without waiting for a response
   from the server, if the first request will 

Perhaps "may" here?  Userauth requests could involve variable numbers
of messages (GSSAPI is notorious for this).

   result in
   further exchange of messages.  No SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_FAILURE
   message will be sent for the aborted method.

   SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_SUCCESS MUST be sent only once, and once
   SSH_MSG_USERAUTH_SUCCESS has been sent, any further authentication
   requests received after that SHOULD be silently ignored.

Is there any good reason why the second SHOULD shouldn't be a MUST?
Doesn't seem like it should be hard to get this right..  is there
deployed code which gets this wrong?

This proposal has been made and rejected by the working group.  IMHO it is
not worth our time to discuss it again.

Perhaps POISSON is a red herring? :-)

I think the "if" in "if the first" reflect the
conditional nature of this -- I guess I'm not sure
where "may" would be put -- it doesn't really
make sense as in "if the first request may" does
it?

Well -- I consider it a bug, but I believe
our implementation currently would probably
send a unimplemented packet, or possible
disconnect.

In fact, a SHOULD at least leaves the door
open for a client / server to refresh expired
credentials by later sending additional USERAUTH
request messages -- though there is currently
no way for the server to notify the client that
this is necessary.

(I'm not actually sure this feature is necessary.)
