From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.2.1) Gecko/20010901 Description of problem: The patch given in bug ID #17847 does its matching with regard to case, so it is unlike the behavior of the old SSH that the function was take from. SSH converted hostnames to lowercase before doings its matching. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 7.6-19 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. add entry in hosts.allow for MiXeD-CaSe domain name using * or ? 2. observe failure to match the host Actual Results: May 14 14:30:00 host sshd[26855]: refused connect from UP.PER.CASE.low.er.case (ip.ad.dr.ess) Expected Results: connection should be allowed as though the hostname had been specified without wildcarding Additional info: I added a comment to bug ID #17847, but that's marked as closed, so I created a new bug ID.
Should be fixed in 7.6-22 or higher. Thanks, Florian La Roche
