| 11 | This is the port of OpenBSD's excellent OpenSSH[0] to Linux and other |
| 12 | Unices. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen's sample |
| 15 | implementation with all patent-encumbered algorithms removed (to |
| 16 | external libraries), all known security bugs fixed, new features |
| 17 | reintroduced and many other clean-ups. OpenSSH has been created by |
| 18 | Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck, Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de Raadt, |
Greg Hartman | 9768ca4 | 2017-06-22 20:49:52 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 19 | and Dug Song. It has a homepage at https://www.openssh.com/ |
Greg Hartman | bd77cf7 | 2015-02-25 13:21:06 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 20 | |
| 21 | This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM |
| 22 | support, EGD[1]/PRNGD[2] support and replacements for OpenBSD library |
| 23 | functions that are (regrettably) absent from other unices. This port |
| 24 | has been best tested on AIX, Cygwin, HP-UX, Linux, MacOS/X, |
| 25 | NetBSD, OpenBSD, OpenServer, Solaris, Unicos, and UnixWare. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | This version actively tracks changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | The PAM support is now more functional than the popular packages of |
| 30 | commercial ssh-1.2.x. It checks "account" and "session" modules for |
| 31 | all logins, not just when using password authentication. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | OpenSSH depends on Zlib[3], OpenSSL[4] and optionally PAM[5]. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | There is now several mailing lists for this port of OpenSSH. Please |
Greg Hartman | 9768ca4 | 2017-06-22 20:49:52 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 36 | refer to https://www.openssh.com/list.html for details on how to join. |
Greg Hartman | bd77cf7 | 2015-02-25 13:21:06 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 37 | |
| 38 | Please send bug reports and patches to the mailing list |
Greg Hartman | 9768ca4 | 2017-06-22 20:49:52 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 39 | openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org. The list is open to posting by unsubscribed |
| 40 | users. Code contribution are welcomed, but please follow the OpenBSD |
| 41 | style guidelines[6]. |

| 48 | Miscellania - |
| 49 | |
| 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. |
