HP-UX Secure Shell A.04.40.005, A.04.40.006 and A.04.40.007Release Notes

HP-UX Secure Shell A.04.40.005, A.04.40.006 and A.04.40.007
New Features in OpenSSH 4.4p1
Chapter13
SSH does not enable the user to forward traffic to the system. It allows
forwardings only to the host specified by the PermitOpen directive.
Optional Logging of Transactions to sftp-server
In earlier releases of OpenSSH, the sftp transactions are logged using
LogSftp, SftpLogFacility, and SftpLogLevel configuration directives.
Starting with OpenSSH 4.4p1, the LogLevel and LogFacility
command-line options are added to sftp-server.
The following configuration directives are no longer supported because of
this enhancement:
•
LogSftp no
• SftpLogFacility AUTH
• SftpLogLevel INFO
• SftpUMask
• SftpPermitChmod yes
• SftpPermitChown yes
The ssh Client Records Port Numbers for Hosts
Stored in known_hosts File
In earlier versions of OpenSSH, the ssh client stored the hostname and
the ip address in the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file, for the remote system to
which it connects. When the ssh client tries to connect to different sshd
servers running on multiple ports using different hostkeys on the same
machine, a message is generated indicating that the host key is changed.
The client checks whether the given host is already in the list of
known_hosts or not. If the host is known and it uses a different host key,
the client receives a warning message and the connection is closed.
Starting with OpenSSH 4.4p1, the ssh client adds a port identifier with
the hostname in the known_hosts file while connecting to the
non-standard ports. Following is the format of the entries in the
known_hosts file:
host:port
