Now that RFC 4462 has been published, I was wondering if there would be
any interest in looking again at integrating the key exchange portions of
my GSSAPI patch into the OpenSSH tree?
As I've mentioned before, key exchange has significant benefits for large
sites as it allows them to use Kerberos to authenticate ssh hosts, and
removes the need to maintain and distribute ssh known_hosts files. Many
vendors are already shipping patched versions of OpenSSH with GSSAPI key
exchange support.
Thanks,
Simon.
