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. + +This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM +support (for Linux and Solaris), EGD[1] support, SOCKS support (using +the Dante [6] libraries 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. |
