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 https://www.openssh.com/

|
|
|
This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM
|
|
|
|
support, 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 AIX, Cygwin, HP-UX, Linux, MacOS/X,
|
|
|
|
FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, OpenServer, Solaris and UnixWare.

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] and
|
|
|
|
libedit[6]

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.
