8This is the port of OpenBSD's excellent OpenSSH[0] to Linux and other
9Unices.
10
11OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen's sample
12implementation with all patent-encumbered algorithms removed (to
13external libraries), all known security bugs fixed, new features
14reintroduced and many other clean-ups.  OpenSSH has been created by
15Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck, Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de Raadt,
16and Dug Song. It has a homepage at https://www.openssh.com/
17
18This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM
19support, EGD/PRNGD support and replacements for OpenBSD library
20functions that are (regrettably) absent from other unices. This port
21has been best tested on AIX, Cygwin, HP-UX, Linux, MacOS/X,
22FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, OpenServer, Solaris and UnixWare.
23
24This version actively tracks changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository.
25
26The PAM support is now more functional than the popular packages of
27commercial ssh-1.2.x. It checks "account" and "session" modules for
28all logins, not just when using password authentication.
29
30There is now several mailing lists for this port of OpenSSH. Please
31refer to https://www.openssh.com/list.html for details on how to join.
32
33Please send bug reports and patches to https://bugzilla.mindrot.org or
34the mailing list openssh-unix-dev@mindrot.org.  To mitigate spam, the
35list only allows posting from subscribed addresses.  Code contribution
36are welcomed, but please follow the OpenBSD style guidelines[1].
37
38Please refer to the INSTALL document for information on dependencies and
39how to install OpenSSH on your system.
