ssh rpm

[Barnett, Blake]

Why not just go with the OS by the creators of these packages and let Redhat
do as they please... 

OpenBSD for me!

Yup, use openssh, not ssh. This, BTW, removes any excuse RedHat could have
for not bundling ssh with the dist. If they don't have it in 6.3 they
would be telling me that they don't consider security (or convenience) at
all when bundling their dist.

Somebody should explain to them what sudo is as well ;-).

In any case the RedHat RPMs available through www.OpenSSH.com are provided
by one of the OpenSSH developers, so should be trustworthy. It requires
OpenSSL, which can be obtained via www.OpenSSL.org.

PS "apt-get install ssh" is really the way to go, though ;-).
