Many subtle improvements have been made that prevent malfunctions which I'm seeing with older releases. So far, I've been doing upgrades by hand on every copy of 4.4-RELEASE and 4.4-STABLE I install... and I do mean "by hand," since installing the port or package posted online puts OpenSSH in different place than the default install. Upgrading is unnecessarily painful and time-consuming. Since OpenSSH 3.x is now time-tested, FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE should include it. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
