| 5 | This is the port of OpenBSD's excellent OpenSSH[0] to Linux and other |
|---|
| 6 | Unices. |
|---|
| 7 | |
|---|
| 8 | OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen's sample |
|---|
| 9 | implementation with all patent-encumbered algorithms removed (to |
|---|
| 10 | external libraries), all known security bugs fixed, new features |
|---|
| 11 | reintroduced and many other clean-ups. OpenSSH has been created by |
|---|
| 12 | Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck, Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de Raadt, |
|---|
| 13 | and Dug Song. It has a homepage at http://www.openssh.com/ |
|---|
| 14 | |
|---|
| 15 | This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM |
|---|
| 16 | support (for Linux and Solaris), EGD[1]/PRNGD[2] support and replacements |
|---|
| 17 | for OpenBSD library functions that are (regrettably) absent from other |
|---|
| 18 | unices. This port has been best tested on Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, NetBSD |
|---|
| 19 | and Irix. Support for AIX, SCO, NeXT and other Unices is underway. |
|---|
| 20 | This version actively tracks changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository. |
|---|
| 21 | |
|---|
| 22 | The PAM support is now more functional than the popular packages of |
|---|
| 23 | commercial ssh-1.2.x. It checks "account" and "session" modules for |
|---|
| 24 | all logins, not just when using password authentication. |
|---|
| 25 | |
|---|
| 26 | OpenSSH depends on Zlib[3], OpenSSL[4] and optionally PAM[5]. |
|---|
| 27 | |
|---|
| 28 | There is now several mailing lists for this port of OpenSSH. Please |
|---|
| 29 | refer to http://www.openssh.com/list.html for details on how to join. |
|---|
| 30 | |
|---|
| 31 | Please send bug reports and patches to the mailing list |
|---|
| 32 | openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org. The list is open to posting by |
|---|
| 33 | unsubscribed users. |
|---|
| 34 | |
|---|
| 35 | If you are a citizen of an USA-embargoed country to which export of |
|---|
| 36 | cryptographic products is restricted, then please refrain from sending |
|---|
| 37 | crypto-related code or patches to the list. We cannot accept them. |
|---|
| 38 | Other code contribution are accepted, but please follow the OpenBSD |
|---|
| 39 | style guidelines[6]. |
|---|
| 40 | |
|---|
| 41 | Please refer to the INSTALL document for information on how to install |
|---|
| 42 | OpenSSH on your system. There are a number of differences between this |
|---|
| 43 | port of OpenSSH and F-Secure SSH 1.x, please refer to the OpenSSH FAQ[7] |
|---|
| 44 | for details and general tips. |

|---|
| 50 | This version of OpenSSH is based upon code retrieved from the OpenBSD |
|---|
| 51 | CVS repository which in turn was based on the last free sample |
|---|
| 52 | implementation released by Tatu Ylonen. |
