Hi, i'm a stupid newbie
. I can't seem to install openssh. it sends me in a big loop. I'm running RedHat 8.0, and am trying to install the following RPM's
openssh-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
openssh-clients-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
openssh-askpass-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
openssh-server-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
openssh-askpass-gnome-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
Okay now here is what it says. first I decide to install (i'm doing this the graphical way)
openssh-server-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
It asks for
openssh = 3.5p1-1
So then I decide to install
openssh-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
because it was asked for. I then attempt to install it, but it asks for
openssh = 3.4p1-2
I then download and attempt to install
openssh-3.4p1-2.i386.rpm
and it gives me an error message saying latest version is already installed.
I then attempt to install
openssh-clients-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
It asks for
openssh-3.5p1-1
Since the install of openssh-3.5p1-1 failed before I skip it and go to install
openssh-askpass-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
it also asks for
openssh-3.5p1-1
I skip ahead to
openssh-askpass-gnome-3.5p1-1.i386.rpm
It also asks for
openssh-3.5p1-1
What the heck is going on and how do I fix it? please be patient and detailed as I know very little about Redhat or unix.
Thanks in advance
