Hi All.
OpenSSH is getting ready for a release soon, so we are asking for all
interested parties to test a snapshot.
Changes include:
* sshd will now re-exec itself for each new connection (the "-e" option
is required when running sshd in debug mode).
* PAM password authentication has been (re)added.
* Interface improvements to sftp(1)
* Many bug fixes and improvements, for details see the ChangeLog and
http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=822
The OpenBSD version is available in CVS HEAD:
http://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html
Portable snapshots are available at:
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/portable/snapshot/
or one of its mirrors listed at http://www.openssh.com/portable.html#ftp
Please test! Running the regression tests supplied with Portable does
not require installation and is a simply:
$ ./configure && make tests
Testing on suitable non-production systems is also appreciated. Please
send reports of success or failure to openssh-unix-dev.
Thanks,
-Daz.

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
