I don't read minds.

OpenSSH is not within the purview of the "freebsd net folk". If you have an issue with OpenSSH, you need to talk to me. The last time I was asked to apply the HPN patches to base, IIRC, they had not yet been submitted to (and rejected by) the upstream vendor, so I decided to wait and see. The NoneCipher issue comes up regularly, and is on my todo list for the 5.0p1 upgrade (along with several other things, such as changing the default key type back to RSA). I hope to import 5.0p1 as soon as we have a vendor import policy in place for Subversion. DES --=20 Dag-Erling Sm=C3=B8rgrav - des@des.no
