[Bug 1698317] Re: AllowUsers *@*.local in /etc/ssh/sshd_config does not work

[desconocido]

Thanks for that. Disappointing. Presumably means that every time I take
my server laptop to a new WiFi network I will have to alter
/etc/ssh/sshd_config.

I am currently using
AllowUsers *@192.168.0.???

Title:
  AllowUsers *@*.local in /etc/ssh/sshd_config does not work

Status in avahi package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in openssh package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I installed Ubuntu Mate 16.04 on two of my computers. The software has
  been brought uptodate to at least May 2017.

  They are both on my local wifi network and should both be using Zeroconf/Avahi/Bonjour.
  I have the same username on both machines.

  I copied /usr/share/doc/avahi-daemon/examples/ssh.service 
  to /etc/avahi/services
  $ sudo service avahi-daemon restart

  I installed sshd on "faustino"
  $ sudo apt-get install openssh-server 

  With the default /etc/ssh/sshd_config I can succesfully ssh to faustino thus
  $ ssh -v localhost			/* from faustino */
  $ ssh -v faustino.local		/* from faustino */
  $ ssh -v faustino.local		/* from the other computer */

  I modified /etc/ssh/sshd_config) to add
  LogLevel VERBOSE
  PermitRootLogin no
  AllowUsers  *@*.local

  $ sudo systemctl restart ssh

  Now I get, for example

  $ ssh faustino.local
  username at faustino.local's password: 
  Permission denied, please try again.

  That fails from the same machine, from another machine and if I try
  ssh localhost. All those worked before I put those directives in.

  I expected all attempts to ssh from .local addresses to work and all
  others to fail.
