This is the port of OpenBSD's excellent OpenSSH[0] to Linux and other
|
|
|
|
|
Unices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen's sample
|
|
|
|
|
implementation with all patent-encumbered algorithms removed (to
|
|
|
|
|
external libraries), all known security bugs fixed, new features
|
|
|
|
|
reintroduced and many other clean-ups. OpenSSH has been created by
|
|
|
|
|
Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck, Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de Raadt,
|
|
|
|
|
and Dug Song. It has a homepage at http://www.openssh.com/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM
|
2004-02-26 10:38:49 +00:00
|
|
|
support (for Linux and Solaris), EGD[1]/PRNGD[2] support and replacements
|
|
|
|
|
for OpenBSD library functions that are (regrettably) absent from other
|
|
|
|
|
unices. This port has been best tested on Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, NetBSD,
|
|
|
|
|
Irix and AIX. Support for SCO, NeXT and other Unices is underway.
|
2002-06-27 22:31:32 +00:00
|
|
|
This version actively tracks changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The PAM support is now more functional than the popular packages of
|
|
|
|
|
commercial ssh-1.2.x. It checks "account" and "session" modules for
|
|
|
|
|
all logins, not just when using password authentication.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OpenSSH depends on Zlib[3], OpenSSL[4] and optionally PAM[5].
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is now several mailing lists for this port of OpenSSH. Please
|
|
|
|
|
refer to http://www.openssh.com/list.html for details on how to join.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please send bug reports and patches to the mailing list
|
|
|
|
|
openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org. The list is open to posting by
|
|
|
|
|
unsubscribed users.

If you are a citizen of an USA-embargoed country to which export of
|
|
|
|
|
cryptographic products is restricted, then please refrain from sending
|
2002-06-27 22:31:32 +00:00
|
|
|
crypto-related code or patches to the list. We cannot accept them.
|
|
|
|
|
Other code contribution are accepted, but please follow the OpenBSD
|
|
|
|
|
style guidelines[6].

|
Please refer to the INSTALL document for information on how to install
|
2004-02-26 10:38:49 +00:00

|
|
OpenSSH on your system. There are a number of differences between this
|
2002-06-27 22:31:32 +00:00
|
|
|
port of OpenSSH and F-Secure SSH 1.x, please refer to the OpenSSH FAQ[7]
|
|
|
|
|
for details and general tips.

|
This version of OpenSSH is based upon code retrieved from the OpenBSD
|
|
|
|
|
CVS repository which in turn was based on the last free sample
|
|
|
|
|
implementation released by Tatu Ylonen.
