Bug #42271	Agent can't handle Reflection for Secure IT 6.1.0.17
Submitted:	22 Jan 2009 15:17	Modified:	9 Jan 2015 14:35
Reporter:	Johan Idrén	Email Updates:
Status:	Won't fix	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Enterprise Monitor: Agent	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	2.0.1.7125	OS:	Linux
Assigned to:	Assigned Account	CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
The ssh software Reflection for Secure IT does not allow the ssh-keygen -l -f options that OpenSSH does, leading to a failed insert when the agent attempts to get the hostid for agent identification, to insert into mysql.inventory

How to repeat:
Install Reflection, then install the agent. It will not be able to connect to the Dashboard.

Suggested fix:
Make agent aware of Reflection and Reflection's -F option, that does what -l -f does in OpenSSH.
ssh-keygen is still the binary to run.

Please provide the output of:

$ ssh-keygen -h

Usage: ssh-keygen [options] [key1 key2 ...]

Where `options' are:
-b nnn Specify key strength in bits (e.g. 1024)
-t dsa | rsa Choose the key type
-c comment Provide the comment
-e file Edit the comment/passphrase of the key
-N passphrase Provide new passphrase for a key (only use with -e)
-p passphrase Provide passphrase
-P Assume empty passphrase
