I'm a SuSE 6.4 user and could not find a package on any of my 6 CD's describing an SSH daemon or client. Nor on the SuSE web site as well. Could someone point me to where I can obtain these facilities? Also, if you know what has to be installed/reviewed in order for me to support SSL in my default SuSE installation of Apache, please share that as well. Thank you.

I had the same problem on a new distro but then remembered the package was called openssh. If it isn't there maybe you can pull it off a newer distro. Adam Oliver http://www.meyedev.com/people/index.html aolive1@umbc.edu

Go to ftp://ftp.suse.de/pub/suse/i386/update/6.4/sec1 They're all there. Usually, you'll just want openssh.rpm unless your company want's you to use 'official' ssh. You'll also find GPG and PGP there. At the time, stupid US export restrictions forced SuSE to only distribute crypto packages directly from outside the US. As such, they weren't allowed to include strong crypto in the US version unless they verified that everyone buying it was USian. That's a very expensive thing to do. I'm Canadian and I bought 6.4 in California... I ended up downloading the German version from ftp.gwdg.de for doing local installations and ignored the US CDs I bought. -- James Oakley Engineering - SolutionInc Ltd. joakley@solutioninc.com http://www.solutioninc.com
6.4 does not ship with openssh and openssl (at least in the us) because of rsa's patent or whatever on the ssl part of things. that patent expired about a year ago and since then new releases of all linux distros have been able to include openssh and openssl in the us retail and download version. you can fetch the source for openssl and openssh and compile them with little trouble.
