execution in ssh_runner.py)
Suppress ssh login banner from broctl output
--------------------------------------------
Key: BIT-1498
URL:
https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1498
Project: Bro Issue Tracker
Issue Type: Patch
Components: BroControl
Affects Versions: 2.4
Reporter: scampbell
Assignee: Daniel Thayer
Priority: Trivial
Labels: broctl
Fix For: 2.5
When using broctl in an environment with login banners, they will be displayed in the
broctl command. In the event that they can not be configured away on the sshd end using
'-q' avoids displaying the banner on the client side.
The patch is trivial:
