[lug] suse and sshd

[Deva Samartha]

I went on their website http://www.suse.de  and entered openssh on the left 
column search field. The first URL in the result gave:

http://www.suse.de/de/support/security/2000_047_openssh_txt.txt

which shows all the openssh upgrades for their distro's.

The ftp site is - in my opinion clearly structured. For 7.0, you get all 
the stuff there:

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/7.0/suse/

The only trick you may want to use is to cd to suse under the version (7.0) 
to get to the individual directories.

the last directory in there: zq1 has the source rpms.

to find, which application is in which directory, do a search in YAST on 
your system.

I think, the "latest" is the problem here

see above

Maybe you just need to spend some time on their site to find your way 
around. For me to find anything on RH - forget it. I'd go to SuSE ;-)

If you want the tar of my ssh source - I can email you the bzipped compiled 
directory (2 M).
