[yocto] Fwd: OpenSSH pre login banner

[Amit Tomer]

Thanks again Bryan for your kind response

The reason for having the PRINC ="4" is becaue when I started modifying
this already existing file
value of PRINC is set 3 ,so for my changes I Incremented it to One.

Change****

SRC_URI = “file://banner”****

To****

SRC_URI += “file://banner“


I am really feeling bit stupid here ,I just in hurry forgot to put + sign

Though I learned a new point


"With your line, you are overriding all the SRC_URI for the entire openssh
recipe and the openssh recipe will only include the banner file ".


Change****

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/openssh-6.1p1:"****

to****

FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}:"****

**

We already had openssh-6.1p1 folder where our sshd_config file is placed
,So I guess it won't harm

much if I put FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/openssh-6.1p1:" with
banner file in openssh-6.1p1 folder


One more point wanted from your end,what is best way to learn Yocto

How can improve my knowledge in Yocto?


Thanks

Amit.
