ANNOUNCE: openssh-1.2.1pre23
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

openssh-1.2.1pre23 is available on:

http://violet.ibs.com.au/openssh/files/

Highlights of this release:

- - A cleanup of the PAM code (it now lives in auth-pam.[ch]). This
also fixes a bug where sshd was ignoring a "PermitRootLogin
without-password" directive.

- - David Randkin's SOCKS support using the Dante libraries. I have not
tested this because I don't have Dante. Instructions and links to
Dante are in the INSTALL document.

- - Automatically detect path to perl installation

- - Fixed broken --wth-default-path option

- - Much tidying up of source files, etc.

- - Portability fixes

19991230
- OpenBSD CVS updates:

<drankin@bohemians.lexington.ky.us>
- Updated documentation with ./configure options

- Calls to pam_setcred, patch from Nalin Dahyabhai

Nope, any path given to --with-default-path still doesn't find its way
into any header files.

Greetings

Configure.in has a problem with the way it checks for socklen_t and size_t.
Without this patch, the program never checks correctly, so it always comes
back undefined.

Thanks,
David

This'll need to be changed to

My mistake on wrong number of args for the AC_TRY_COMPILE function.
The same for the size_t

My stupid. Jim Knoble has sent me a fix which will make it into
the release later today.
