I've got systems set up with just 1.2.7, just 2.0.12, and 2.0.12 with fallback to 1.2.27 and not a hitch. Obviously with shadowed passwords on all the systems. I don't recall having any problems with 2.0.11, but I didn't have it installed for very long. I have heard of and had problems with the RPMs that are floating around for both versions of SSH, which is why I do my SSH installations with a tarball of my own. That may be the problem that you heard of. --- tani hosokawa river styx internet On Sun, 23 May 1999, Nassar Carnegie wrote: > I know that there were some compatibility issues with ssh and ssh2 on > RedHat systems.
