1 See http://www.openssh.com/txt/release-7.1p2 for the release notes. 2 3 Please read http://www.openssh.com/report.html for bug reporting 4 instructions and note that we do not use Github for bug reporting or 5 patch/pull-request management. 6 7 - A Japanese translation of this document and of the OpenSSH FAQ is 8 - available at http://www.unixuser.org/~haruyama/security/openssh/index.html 9 - Thanks to HARUYAMA Seigo <haruyama (a] unixuser.org> 10 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, 19 and Dug Song. It has a homepage at http://www.openssh.com/ 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 36 refer to http://www.openssh.com/list.html for details on how to join. 37 38 Please send bug reports and patches to the mailing list 39 openssh-unix-dev (a] mindrot.org. The list is open to posting by 40 unsubscribed users.Code contribution are welcomed, but please follow the 41 OpenBSD style guidelines[6]. 42 43 Please refer to the INSTALL document for information on how to install 44 OpenSSH on your system. There are a number of differences between this 45 port of OpenSSH and F-Secure SSH 1.x, please refer to the OpenSSH FAQ[7] 46 for details and general tips. 47 48 Damien Miller <djm (a] mindrot.org> 49 50 Miscellania - 51 52 This version of OpenSSH is based upon code retrieved from the OpenBSD 53 CVS repository which in turn was based on the last free sample 54 implementation released by Tatu Ylonen. 55 56 References - 57 58 [0] http://www.openssh.com/faq.html 59 [1] http://www.lothar.com/tech/crypto/ 60 [2] http://www.aet.tu-cottbus.de/personen/jaenicke/postfix_tls/prngd.html 61 [3] http://www.gzip.org/zlib/ 62 [4] http://www.openssl.org/ 63 [5] http://www.openpam.org 64 http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/ 65 (PAM also is standard on Solaris and HP-UX 11) 66 [6] http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=style&sektion=9 67 [7] http://www.openssh.com/faq.html 68 69 $Id: README,v 1.87 2014/08/10 01:35:06 djm Exp $ 70
