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/PRNGD 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. There is now several mailing lists for this port of OpenSSH. Please refer to https://www.openssh.com/list.html for details on how to join. Please send bug reports and patches to https://bugzilla.mindrot.org or the mailing list openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org. To mitigate spam, the list only allows posting from subscribed addresses. Code contribution are welcomed, but please follow the OpenBSD style guidelines[1]. Please refer to the INSTALL document for information on dependencies and how to install OpenSSH on your system. Damien Miller <djm@mindrot.org> Miscellania - 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.
