Hello,
I'm currently seeking for a feasible replacement for FTP (with regard
to GUI loving Winusers...) and stumbled across the following in the
4.2 RELEASE notes:
"OpenSSH has been upgraded to 2.2.0.  ssh-add(1) and ssh-agent(1) can
now handle DSA keys.  An sftp server interoperable with ssh.com
clients and others has been added.  scp(1) can now handle files >2GB.
Interoperability with other ssh2 clients/servers has been improved.  A
new feature to limit the number of outstanding unauthenticated ssh
connections in sshd has been added."

Now I can't seem able to find sftp except for some source in the
source tree. The OpenSSH homepage man pages mention it, while the
FreeBSD ones don't. So I began to wonder whether I got the correct
version on my boxes and did the following (I'm tracking stable quite
frequently):

root@epsilon 14:22:14 /usr/src/sys/i386/conf $ uname -a
FreeBSD epsilon.root.li 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0: Sun Jan 21
17:18:28 CET 2001
root@epsilon.root.li:/foreignhome/obj/usr/src/sys/ffnonwpboxes  i386

So 4.2 STABLE actually IS installed and a pretty recent one after all.
However, the following doesn't look quite as good:

root@epsilon 14:23:45 /usr/src/sys/i386/conf $ sshd -V
sshd: option requires an argument -- V
sshd version OpenSSH-2.1

So what's wrong here? According to the release informations, I should
have OpenSSH 2.2.0 on 4.2 STABLE, right?



Best regards,
 Gabriel
