And that's another excellent suggestion for those that are unhappy with the direction that OpenSSH is taking. Don't get me wrong--I don't think OpenSSH (the software) is a perfect fit for my needs (I actually liked the information I got from FascistLogging to track what certain people were doing on our production servers). I've never bothered with the "political" side of the project. I don't have the time or motivation to do it myself, so I'm not going to complain that somebody has provided me with something I can use for free that pretty much meets my needs. If FreSSH picks up steam and fills my needs better, I'll be happy to change. Conversely, if someone wants to pay me exorbitant sums to develop an SSH package from scratch I'll happily do that too :-) Tony -- Tony Landells Senior Network Engineer Ph: +61 3 9677 9319 Australian Clearing Services Pty Ltd Fax: +61 3 9677 9355 Level 4, Rialto North Tower 525 Collins Street Melbourne VIC 3000 Australia To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
