Test OpenSSH 3.6 Snapshots

Posted by timothy on from the good-seats-are-still-available dept.

Dan writes "OpenBSD's Markus Friedl is requesting everyone to test the latest OpenSSH 3.6 nightly snapshots to help ensure a quality final release. The OpenSSH Portability Team takes the pure OpenSSH version and adds portability code so that OpenSSH can run on many other operating systems. Folks, download snapshots for your OS from one of these mirrors."

    The portable page claims the portable version of OpenSSH will run on Cygwin.

    Doggoned employers ... OpenSSH still not running on Windows 2K, is it ?

    There was this project which used to produce a very easily installable distribution, but the author has ceased maintaining the package, due to the Cygwin installation process being much easier nowadays.

    Still, think about using Linux (or OpenBSD!) instead :-)

    Ciao,

    How about a changelog? What's new? Why should I want this release? There's none on the pages mentioned above.
