Description Tony Finch 2001-09-29 08:40:00 UTC
Some of the configuration defaults mentioned in ssh.1 and sshd.8
are incorrect with respect to the code.

There are a few oddities too: the code seems unsure about the difference
between ChallengeResponseAuthentication and KbdInteractiveAuthentication
(which seems to be a partial alias for the former if you use protocol 2);
ssh recognises /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key but sshd doesn't; the version
addendum option isn't documented.
Comment 1 Tony Finch 2001-09-29 08:56:34 UTC
Some other things I forgot before submitting the PR:
the ConnectionsPerPeriod option for sshd is still lurking
around in the source but has no implementation; another
weirdness about c-r-a and k-i-a is that the defaults
for them disagree (client-side c-r-a is off and k-i-a
is on, while server side c-r-a is on and k-i-a is off).

[apologies for the lack of subject line on the PR: I
broke my copy of send-pr :-( ]

Tony.

I've gone over this recently and I think it's all correct now.
