Why not drop ssh and use OpenSSH?
Great idea - just sitting hier at a customer, and saw that on SuSE 6.2 only the 1.2.27-18 is installed :(
Bad idea. 1.2.27 has been the only secure shell implementation (along with the newer versions) that was capable of running a backup through an ssh connection. It's a matter of stability... We'll have to focus on openssh, though. Maybe, in future releases of the SuSE-distribution, there will be the official ssh version from f-secure included (it almost was in 7.1, but I didn't get the written agreement from the finland folks).
