- Description:
- OpenBSD's OpenSSH portable version
Normal OpenSSH development produces a very small, secure, and easy to maintain
version for the OpenBSD project. The OpenSSH Portability Team takes that pure
version and adds portability code so that OpenSSH can run on many other
operating systems (Unfortunately, in particular since OpenSSH does
authentication, it runs into a *lot* of differences between Unix operating
systems).
The portable OpenSSH follows development of the official version, but releases
are not synchronized. Portable releases are marked with a 'p' (e.g. 3.1p1).
The official OpenBSD source will never use the 'p' suffix, but will instead
increment the version number when they hit 'stable spots' in their development.

- Options name:
- security_openssh-portable
- USES:
- autoreconf compiler:c11 cpe localbase ncurses pkgconfig ssl libedit
- pkg-message:
- For install:
- To enable this port, add openssh_enable="YES" in your rc.conf. To
prevent conflict with openssh in the base system add sshd_enable="NO"
in your rc.conf. Also you can configure openssh at another TCP port (via
sshd_config 'Port' and 'Listen' options or via 'openssh_flags'
variable in rc.conf) and run it in same time with base sshd.
'PermitRootLogin no' is the default for the OpenSSH port.
This now matches the PermitRootLogin configuration of OpenSSH in
the base system. Please be aware of this when upgrading your
OpenSSH port, and if truly necessary, re-enable remote root login
by readjusting this option in your sshd_config.
Users are encouraged to create single-purpose users with ssh keys, disable
Password authentication by setting 'PasswordAuthentication no' and
'ChallengeResponseAuthentication no', and to define very narrow sudo
privileges instead of using root for automated tasks.

New port: OpenSSH portable, which has GNU-configure and more. Diffs to
OpenSSH-OPenBSD are huge. So this is here a complete diffrent branch, no
repro-copy - Did a bit cleanup in the Makefile |
