where can i find rpm's of ssh for suse?

ftp://ftp.gwdg.de/pub/linux/suse/$RELEASE/i386.de/full-names /i386/

where $RELEASE is 6.0, 6.1, 6.2, or 6.3, appropriate for

your installation. If I'm running 6.2 would in not make sense to grab the newest copy of ssh rather than the older one, or has the system changes between 6.2 and 6.3 mean that I will have to do a full upgrade. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

Just because it is in the SuSE 6.3 tree doesn't mean it is more up-to-date. If it's a major upgrade (or even a minor one) SuSE will sometimes create an rpm for each version. They are all the same program, just compiled for the different distro. I would say, though, that often SuSE doesn't create rpms for the older distributions, so don't *always* expect to find the latest.
