[ssh.1]
for "Ciphers", just point the reader to the keyword in ssh_config(5), just
as we do for "MACs": this stops us getting out of sync when the lists
change;
fixes documentation/6102, submitted by Peter J. Philipp
alternative fix proposed by djm
ok markus
[ssh.1 ssh.c]
Add -y option to force logging via syslog rather than stderr.
Useful for daemonised ssh connection (ssh -f). Patch originally from
and ok'd by markus@
[ssh.1 ssh.c]
When forking after authentication ("ssh -f") with ExitOnForwardFailure
enabled, delay the fork until after replies for any -R forwards have
been seen. Allows for robust detection of -R forward failure when
using -f (similar to bz#92); ok dtucker@
[readconf.c readconf.h ssh.1 ssh_config.5 sshconnect.c]
Move SSH Fingerprint Visualization away from sharing the config option
CheckHostIP to an own config option named VisualHostKey.
While there, fix the behaviour that ssh would draw a random art picture
on every newly seen host even when the option was not enabled.
prodded by deraadt@, discussions,

[ssh.1]
Explain the use of SSH fpr visualization using random art, and cite the
original scientific paper inspiring that technique.
Much help with English and nroff by jmc@, thanks.
[ssh.c ssh.1]
Add "-K" flag for ssh to set GSSAPIAuthentication=yes and
GSSAPIDelegateCredentials=yes. This is symmetric with -k (disable GSSAPI)
and is useful for hosts with /home on Kerberised NFS; bz #1312

[ssh_config.5 sshd.8 sshd_config.5]
Add a new MAC algorithm for data integrity, UMAC-64 (not default yet,
must specify umac-64@openssh.com). Provides about 20% end-to-end speedup
compared to hmac-md5. Represents a different approach to message
authentication to that of HMAC that may be beneficial if HMAC based on
one of its underlying hash algorithms is found to be vulnerable to a
new attack. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4418.txt

forwardings. ok djm, dtucker, stevesk, jmc
[scp.1 ssh.1 ssh_config.5 sftp.1]
Document RekeyLimit. Based on patch from jan.iven at cern.ch from mindrot
#1056 with feedback from jmc, djm and markus; ok jmc@ djm@
[ssh.1]
split sections on tcp and x11 forwarding into two sections.
add an example in the tcp section, based on sth i wrote for ssh faq;

[ssh.1]
move FILES to a -compact list, and make each files an item in that list.
this avoids nastly line wrap when we have long pathnames, and treats
each file as a separate item;
remove the .Pa too, since it is useless.
