README - third_party/openssh-portable - Git at Google

 This is a Linux port of OpenBSD's excellent OpenSSH.

 OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen's SSH with
 all patent-encumbered algorithms removed, all known security bugs
 fixed, new features reintroduced and many other clean-ups.

 This Linux port basically consists of a few fixes to deal with
 the way that OpenSSL is usually installed on Linux systems, a few
 replacements for OpenBSD library functions and the introduction of PAM
 support. This version tracks changes made to the OpenBSD CVS version.

 The PAM support is now more functional than the popular packages of
 commercial ssh-1.2.x. It checks "account" and "session" modules for
 all logins, not just when using password authentication. This code is
 very new and needs further testing.

 All new code is released under a XFree style license, which is very
 liberal. Please refer to the source files for details. The code in
 strlcpy.c and mktemp.c is from the OpenBSD project and has its own
 license (again, see source file for details).

 OpenSSH depends on Zlib[1], OpenSSL[2] and optionally PAM[3]. To build
 the GNOME[1] passphrase requestor (--with-gnome-askpass), you will
 need the GNOME libraries installed.

 To build OpenSSH, use the configure script provided. For example:

 ./configure --prefix=/opt/openssh
 make
 make install

 Will install the OpenSSH binaries in /opt/openssh/bin, the
 configuration files in /opt/openssh/etc, and so forth.

 Miscellania -

 This version of SSH is based upon code retrieved from the OpenBSD CVS
 repository on 1999-11-09 which in turn was based on the last free
 version of SSH released by Tatu Ylonen.

 Code in helper.[ch] and gnome-ssh-askpass.c is Copyright 1999

 license (see source files for details).

 (A)RC4 code in rc4.[ch] is Copyright 1999 Damien Miller. It too is
 under a X11-style license (see source file for details).
