[ssh_config.5] RSA instead of DSA twice. From Steve.McClellan at radisys com
2012-05-18* New upstream release (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-6.0).Colin Watson
- Fix IPQoS not being set on non-mapped v4-in-v6 addressed connections (closes: #643312, #650512). - Add a new privilege separation sandbox implementation for Linux's new seccomp sandbox, automatically enabled on platforms that support it. (Note: privilege separation sandboxing is still experimental.)

2011-09-06* New upstream release (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-5.9).Colin Watson
- Introduce sandboxing of the pre-auth privsep child using an optional sshd_config(5) "UsePrivilegeSeparation=sandbox" mode that enables mandatory restrictions on the syscalls the privsep child can perform. - Add new SHA256-based HMAC transport integrity modes from http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-dbider-sha2-mac-for-ssh-02.txt. - The pre-authentication sshd(8) privilege separation slave process now logs via a socket shared with the master process, avoiding the need to maintain /dev/log inside the chroot (closes: #75043, #429243, #599240). - ssh(1) now warns when a server refuses X11 forwarding (closes: #504757). - sshd_config(5)'s AuthorizedKeysFile now accepts multiple paths, separated by whitespace (closes: #76312). The authorized_keys2 fallback is deprecated but documented (closes: #560156). - ssh(1) and sshd(8): set IPv6 traffic class from IPQoS, as well as IPv4 ToS/DSCP (closes: #498297). - ssh-add(1) now accepts keys piped from standard input. E.g. "ssh-add - < /path/to/key" (closes: #229124). - Clean up lost-passphrase text in ssh-keygen(1) (closes: #444691). - Say "required" rather than "recommended" in unprotected-private-key warning (LP: #663455).

2011-01-24* New upstream release (http://www.openssh.org/txt/release-5.7):Colin Watson
- Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH) and host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA offer better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent symmetric key length, as well as much shorter keys. - sftp(1)/sftp-server(8): add a protocol extension to support a hard link operation. It is available through the "ln" command in the client. The old "ln" behaviour of creating a symlink is available using its "-s" option or through the preexisting "symlink" command. - scp(1): Add a new -3 option to scp: Copies between two remote hosts are transferred through the local host (closes: #508613). - ssh(1): "atomically" create the listening mux socket by binding it on a temporary name and then linking it into position after listen() has succeeded. This allows the mux clients to determine that the server socket is either ready or stale without races (closes: #454784). Stale server sockets are now automatically removed (closes: #523250). - ssh(1): install a SIGCHLD handler to reap expired child process (closes: #594687). - ssh(1)/ssh-agent(1): honour $TMPDIR for client xauth and ssh-agent temporary directories (closes: #357469, although only if you arrange for ssh-agent to actually see $TMPDIR since the setgid bit will cause it to be stripped off).

2010-03-31Drop most of our "LogLevel SILENT" (-qq) patch. This was originallyColin Watson
introduced to match the behaviour of non-free SSH, in which -q does not suppress fatal errors, but matching the behaviour of OpenSSH upstream is much more important nowadays. We no longer document that -q does not suppress fatal errors (closes: #280609). Migrate "LogLevel SILENT" to "LogLevel QUIET" in sshd_config on upgrade.
2010-03-31* New upstream release (LP: #535029).Colin Watson
- After a transition period of about 10 years, this release disables SSH protocol 1 by default. Clients and servers that need to use the legacy protocol must explicitly enable it in ssh_config / sshd_config or on the command-line. - Remove the libsectok/OpenSC-based smartcard code and add support for PKCS#11 tokens. This support is enabled by default in the Debian packaging, since it now doesn't involve additional library dependencies (closes: #231472, LP: #16918). - Add support for certificate authentication of users and hosts using a new, minimal OpenSSH certificate format (closes: #482806). - Added a 'netcat mode' to ssh(1): "ssh -W host:port ...". - Add the ability to revoke keys in sshd(8) and ssh(1). (For the Debian package, this overlaps with the key blacklisting facility added in openssh 1:4.7p1-9, but with different file formats and slightly different scopes; for the moment, I've roughly merged the two.) - Various multiplexing improvements, including support for requesting port-forwardings via the multiplex protocol (closes: #360151). - Allow setting an explicit umask on the sftp-server(8) commandline to override whatever default the user has (closes: #496843). - Many sftp client improvements, including tab-completion, more options, and recursive transfer support for get/put (LP: #33378). The old mget/mput commands never worked properly and have been removed (closes: #270399, #428082). - Do not prompt for a passphrase if we fail to open a keyfile, and log the reason why the open failed to debug (closes: #431538). - Prevent sftp from crashing when given a "-" without a command. Also, allow whitespace to follow a "-" (closes: #531561).
