Bug ID: 293849
Summary: When sshd is started from inetd, zombie processes is
generated.
Product: Base System
Version: 15.0-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: fbsd-bugzilla@aj.admwt.jp
I am using sshd configured to be started from inetd. Since updating to FreeBSD
15.0R, sshd has been generating zombie processes. It seems that sshd is
terminating abnormally somewhere. There were no problems with 14.3. Of course,
if sshd is started as a daemon, no zombie processes are generated.
