An anonymous reader writes "OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol version 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. It encrypts all traffic (including passwords) to effectively eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other attacks. Additionally, OpenSSH provides secure tunneling capabilities and several authentication methods, and supports all SSH protocol versions. Version 5.3 marks the 10th anniversary of the OpenSSH project."

This wonder-full versatile tool shaped the world of remote administration or the other way round.
Would you ?
1) Abandon SSH or OpenSSH
2) Loose an arm
3) I'm a snake
4) Telnet everywhere
5) I live in a data-center

i dont need ssh... for some reason inetd was installed with a call to bash, running as root. i can just telnet right in. it actually saves me a ton of time, since lately i can't even seem to remember what my password is.

I think something was lost in the translation in that post, French to English.

Yes, and I found the open sores somewhat unappealing.

You can get as many 419s as you can handle from my colleague, until recently the Esteemed Excellency of Nigeria's Department of Overseas Resource Depletion, and now with a large number of undocumented 419s at his disposal. Please reply with banking details, home address and SIN, and all other useful information such as drivers license and credit card numbers.

Wow, is that bzipped? How large is it uncompressed?
Re:To the best (Score:3, Funny)
Of course it's bzipped - but I'm not sure what the compression ratio is for Python. I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't fork it. And be careful when examining the Python, it has been known to generate streams of Perl. You'd rather not get it on you - it is, after all, a glue language.

That's odd; it just appears as ******* to me. Is that because it only shows up for the person whose password it is? Cool.
