- Features:
Possible use of sftp/sftp-server with older FreeBSD releases.
Use a newer version independently from the Base system.
Easier to test and fix possible security bugs.
- Bugs:
build of pam_ssm.so isn't be supported any more
Any file named "cookie" can be deleted by this and any older "sshd"
with X11 Forwarding.
ports-based OpenSSH. OpenSSH has been in the base system for more
than long enough to justify not having to maintain two separate
FreeBSD versions of OpenSSH.
it is no longer required. Apologies to the various maintainers whom I
did not yet hear back from, but the ports freeze is coming up in a few
hours and I will be verifying all of these ports on a 4.1 machine
myself to catch any problems.
think that it's good to immediately switch to the newest API, despite
the old API call being left deliberately compatible so that that wouldn't
have to happen. OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms() is now, again,
SSLeay_add_all_algorithms.
not needed for the port.
Big thanks to Issei-san for doing the majority of the work necessary for
this upgrade!

For green's honor, the patch I sent him for review was correct.
But because it is one line fix, I hand merged it into my
cvs committing environment, and then mistake happend.
This time, I applied correct fix which should have been aplied
at last commit.
Go to a much more convenient scheme for distfiles/ignorefiles. There
will be a lot less change from now on... the release name not being
embedded in them helps a lot.
Fix an unquoted "${CVS_DATE}" so cvs update isn't always run when
we're in one of the first 9 days of a month in CVS_DATE.
Update to OpenSSH-1.2.2, which doesn't really mean anything since there
are no source releases anyway...
The port has been verified to work with pdksh 5.2.14 as /bin/sh, and
about 7 times faster.

Primarily, I have added built-in functions for manipulating the
environment, so putenv() is no longer used. XDM and its variants
should now work without modification. Note that the new code uses
the macros in <sys/queue.h>.

The version is now 1.2.1, from 1.2. You can mv your old distfiles/OpenSSH-1.2
dir to distfiles/OpenSSH-1.2.1, if you want to not waste time/space.
Some minor nits have been fixed, and a couple bugs. One sizeof(len)
should have just been len, and, in markus's words,
"fix get_remote_port() and friends for sshd -i".
updated to today's snapshot of OpenSSH.
Various updates from the latest ${CVS_DATE}, and requisite patch
changes, are the "big new thing". Nothing major has changed; the
biggest ones would be using atomicio() in a lot of places and a
fix for a SIGHUP not updating sshd(8)'s configuration until the
next connection.
OpenBSD OpenSSH front), add ConnectionsPerPeriod to prevent DoS via
running the system out of resources. In reality, this wouldn't
be a full DoS, but would make a system slower, but this is a better
thing to do than let the system get loaded down.
So here we are, rate-limiting. The default settings are now:
Five connections are allowed to authenticate (and not be rejected) in
a period of ten seconds.
One minute is given for login grace time.
More work in this area is being done by alfred@FreeBSD.org and
markus@OpenBSD.org, at the very least. This is, essentially, a
stopgap solution; however, it is a properly implemented and documented
one, and has an easily modifiable framework.
