OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen's SSH with

fixed, new features reintroduced and many other clean-ups. More
information about SSH itself can be found in the file README.Ylonen.

This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM
support (for Linux and Solaris), EGD[1] support, and replacements
for OpenBSD library functions that are (regrettably) absent from
other unices. This port has been best tested on Linux, Solaris and
HPUX, though support for AIX and Irix is underway. This version
actively tracks changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository. This port
also has optional support for using the Dante SOCKS library[6],
version 1.1.1pre1 or later.
