+Description: secure shell (SSH) client for legacy SSH1 protocol
+ This is the portable version of OpenSSH, a free implementation of
+ the Secure Shell protocol as specified by the IETF secsh working
+ group.
+ .
+ Ssh (Secure Shell) is a program for logging into a remote machine
+ and for executing commands on a remote machine.
+ It provides secure encrypted communications between two untrusted
+ hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections and arbitrary TCP/IP
+ ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.
+ It can be used to provide applications with a secure communication
+ channel.
+ .
+ This package provides the ssh1 and scp1 clients and the ssh-keygen1
+ utility, all built with support for the legacy SSH1 protocol. This
+ protocol is obsolete and should not normally be used, but in some cases
+ there may be no alternative way to connect to outdated servers.
+ .
+ In some countries it may be illegal to use any encryption at all
+ without a special permit.
+ .
+ ssh replaces the insecure rsh, rcp and rlogin programs, which are
+ obsolete for most purposes.
