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, HP-UX, 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 +commercial ssh-1.2.x. It checks "account" and "session" modules for +all logins, not just when using password authentication. + +OpenSSH depends on Zlib[3], OpenSSL[4] and optionally PAM[5]. + +There is now several mailing lists for this port of OpenSSH. Please +refer to http://www.openssh.com/list.html for details on how to join. + +Please send bug reports and patches to the mailing list +openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org. The list is open to posting by +unsubscribed users. + +If you are a citizen of an USA-embargoed country to which export of +cryptographic products is restricted, then please refrain from sending +crypto-related code or patches to the list. We cannot accept them. +Other code contribution are accepted, but please follow the OpenBSD +style guidelines[6]. + +Please refer to the INSTALL document for information on how to install +OpenSSH on your system. There are a number of differences between this +port of OpenSSH and F-Secure SSH 1.x, please refer to the OpenSSH FAQ[7] +for details and general tips. + +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. + +References - + +[0] http://www.openssh.com/faq.html +[1] http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/ +[2] http://www.aet.tu-cottbus.de/personen/jaenicke/postfix_tls/prngd.html +[3] http://www.gzip.org/zlib/ +[4] http://www.openssl.org/ +[5] http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/ (PAM is standard on Solaris + and HP-UX 11) +[6] http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=style&sektion=9 +[7] http://www.openssh.com/faq.html + +$Id: README,v 1.50 2001/12/24 03:17:21 djm Exp $ |
