<title>OpenSSH</title>
<para><application>OpenSSH</application> has been updated to
2.1.0, which provides support for the SSH2 protocol, including DSA
keys. Therefore, <application>OpenSSH</application> users in the
US no longer need to rely on the restrictively-licensed
RSAREF toolkit which is required to
handle RSA keys. <application>OpenSSH</application> 2.1 interoperates well with other SSH2
clients and servers, including the <filename>ssh2</filename> port.

2.9, which provides support for the SSH2 protocol (now the
default) and DSA keys. &man.ssh-add.1; and &man.ssh-agent.1;
can now handle DSA keys, with support for authentication
forwarding. <application>OpenSSH</application> users in the
USA no longer need to rely on the restrictively-licensed
RSAREF toolkit which is required to handle RSA keys. Among
other new features: A client and server for sftp has been
added. &man.scp.1; can now handle files larger than 2 GBytes.
A limit on the number of outstanding, unauthenticated
connections in &man.sshd.8; has been added. Support has been
added for the Rijndael encryption algorithm. Rekeying of
existing sessions is now supported, and an experimental
<application>SOCKS4</application> proxy has been added to
&man.ssh.1;.</para>
