You are not correct I think. The ssh2 software which people in www.ssh.fi land wrote has a very restricted license, but the protocol itself is open. See: http://www.ietf.cnri.reston.va.us/ids.by.wg/secsh.html for IETF drafts. [this is like tcp/ip -- MS has a proprietary stack, but protocol is open] -- Yan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
