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 SSH with
-all patent-encumbered algorithms removed (to external libraries), all
-known security bugs fixed, new features reintroduced and many other
-clean-ups. More information about SSH itself can be found in the file
-README.Ylonen. OpenSSH has been created by Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck,
-Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de Raadt, and Dug Song. It has a
-homepage at http://www.openssh.com/

This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM
-support (for Linux and Solaris), 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 Linux, Solaris, HPUX, NetBSD
-and Irix. Support for AIX, SCO, NeXT and other Unices is underway.

This version actively tracks changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository.
The PAM support is now more functional than the popular packages of
openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org. The list is open to posting by
unsubscribed users.
