-===========================================================================
-Important change since 3.7.1p2-2:
-
-The ssh-host-config file doesn't create the /etc/ssh_config and
-/etc/sshd_config files from builtin here-scripts anymore, but it uses
-skeleton files installed in /etc/defaults/etc.
-
-Also it now tries hard to create appropriate permissions on files.
-Same applies for ssh-user-config.
-
-After creating the sshd service with ssh-host-config, it's advisable to
-call ssh-user-config for all affected users, also already exising user
-configurations.  In the latter case, file and directory permissions are
-checked and changed, if requireed to match the host configuration.
-
-Important note for Windows 2003 Server users:
----------------------------------------------
-
-2003 Server has a funny new feature.  When starting services under SYSTEM
-account, these services have nearly all user rights which SYSTEM holds...
-except for the "Create a token object" right, which is needed to allow
-public key authentication :-(
-
-There's no way around this, except for creating a substitute account which
-has the appropriate privileges.  Basically, this account should be member
-of the administrators group, plus it should have the following user rights:
-
-        Create a token object
-        Logon as a service
-        Replace a process level token
-        Increase Quota
-
-The ssh-host-config script asks you, if it should create such an account,
-called "sshd_server".  If you say "no" here, you're on your own.  Please
-follow the instruction in ssh-host-config exactly if possible.  Note that
-ssh-user-config sets the permissions on 2003 Server machines dependent of
-whether a sshd_server account exists or not.

-===========================================================================
-Important change since 3.4p1-2:
-
-This version adds privilege separation as default setting, see
-/usr/doc/openssh/README.privsep.  According to that document the
-privsep feature requires a non-privileged account called 'sshd'.
-
-The new ssh-host-config file which is part of this version asks
-to create 'sshd' as local user if you want to use privilege
-separation.  If you confirm, it creates that NT user and adds
-the necessary entry to /etc/passwd.
-
-On 9x/Me systems the script just sets UsePrivilegeSeparation to "no"
-since that feature doesn't make any sense on a system which doesn't
-differ between privileged and unprivileged users.
-
-The new ssh-host-config script also adds the /var/empty directory
-needed by privilege separation.  When creating the /var/empty directory
-by yourself, please note that in contrast to the README.privsep document
-the owner sshould not be "root" but the user which is running sshd.  So,
-in the standard configuration this is SYSTEM.  The ssh-host-config script
-chowns /var/empty accordingly.
-===========================================================================
-
-===========================================================================
-Important change since 3.0.1p1-2:
-
-This version introduces the ability to register sshd as service on
-Windows 9x/Me systems.  This is done only when the options -D and/or
--d are not given.
-===========================================================================
-
-===========================================================================
-Important change since 2.9p2:
-
-Since Cygwin is able to switch user context without password beginning
-with version 1.3.2, OpenSSH now allows to do so when it's running under
-a version >= 1.3.2. Keep in mind that `ntsec' has to be activated to
-allow that feature.
-===========================================================================
-
-===========================================================================
-Important change since 2.3.0p1:
-
-When using `ntea' or `ntsec' you now have to care for the ownership
-and permission bits of your host key files and your private key files.
-The host key files have to be owned by the NT account which starts
-sshd. The user key files have to be owned by the user. The permission
-bits of the private key files (host and user) have to be at least
-rw------- (0600)!
-
-Note that this is forced under `ntsec' only if the files are on a NTFS
-filesystem (which is recommended) due to the lack of any basic security
-features of the FAT/FAT32 filesystems.
-===========================================================================

+Host configuration
+==================
 
 If you are installing OpenSSH the first time, you can generate global config
-files and server keys by running
+files and server keys, as well as installing sshd as a service, by running
 
    /usr/bin/ssh-host-config
 
 Note that this binary archive doesn't contain default config files in /etc.
 That files are only created if ssh-host-config is started.
 
-If you are updating your installation you may run the above ssh-host-config
-as well to move your configuration files to the new location and to
-erase the files at the old location.

 Please note that OpenSSH does never use the value of $HOME to
 search for the users configuration files! It always uses the
 value of the pw_dir field in /etc/passwd as the home directory.
 If no home diretory is set in /etc/passwd, the root directory
 is used instead!
 
-You may use all features of the CYGWIN=ntsec setting the same
-way as they are used by Cygwin's login(1) port:
-
-  The pw_gecos field may contain an additional field, that begins
-  with (upper case!) "U-", followed by the domain and the username
-  separated by a backslash.
-  CAUTION: The SID _must_ remain the _last_ field in pw_gecos!
-  BTW: The field separator in pw_gecos is the comma.
-  The username in pw_name itself may be any nice name:
-
-    domuser::1104:513:John Doe,U-domain\user,S-1-5-21-...
-
-  Now you may use `domuser' as your login name with telnet!
-  This is possible additionally for local users, if you don't like
-  your NT login name ;-) You only have to leave out the domain:
-
-    locuser::1104:513:John Doe,U-user,S-1-5-21-...
-
-Note that the CYGWIN=ntsec setting is required for public key authentication.
-
-SSH2 server and user keys are generated by the `ssh-*-config' scripts
-as well.
