It currently builds under pkgsrc, but you're right, it
would be nice to bring it in the base.

# pkg_info openssh
Information for openssh-4.7.1nb1:

Comment:
Open Source Secure shell client and server (remote login program)

Requires:
zlib>=1.2.3
openssl>=0.9.7inb1
tcp_wrappers>=7.6.1nb3

Description:
OpenSSH is based on the last free version of Tatu Ylonen's SSH with
all patent-encumbered algorithms removed (to external libraries), all
known security bugs fixed, new features reintroduced and many other
clean-ups. More information about SSH itself can be found in the file
README.Ylonen. OpenSSH has been created by Aaron Campbell, Bob Beck,
Markus Friedl, Niels Provos, Theo de Raadt, and Dug Song.

This port consists of the re-introduction of autoconf support, PAM
support (for Linux and Solaris), EGD[1] support, SOCKS support (using
the Dante [6] libraries and replacements for OpenBSD library functions
that are (regrettably) absent from other unices. This port has been
best tested on Linux, Solaris, HPUX, NetBSD and Irix. Support for AIX,
SCO, NeXT and other Unices is underway. This version actively tracks
changes in the OpenBSD CVS repository.

That will likely come in a later release.  We also have "easy to follow"
porting instructions for people who would like to download the source from
openssh.org and build it themselves.

Subject: openssh ?

The source tree contains openssl, but not openssh code

Are we going to provide ssh as part of this code base or is there some
licensing issue why we can't ? 

Thanks !

Dave

I have ssh and friends building under my dev branch
for all platforms:
branches/developer/seanb_netbsd-4-0-RELEASE

cursory testing so far but I'm using it...

I haven't heard any plan of that from Robert. However, for years we have
been providing customers how-to-porting both openssl and openssh for all
platforms. This is the current practical way of providing customers the
openssl and openssh. 

The how-to is the summary (step by step) based on our ports which we checked
into product/lib/openssl and product/services/openssh. Recently Robert and I
provided a customer an updated how-to in which we use the latest release
code of openssl and openssh for all the platforms for illustration. If you
need it I can send you the how-to. 


Thanks.
