Here's a patch for FreeBSD: http://www.secnetix.de/~olli/FreeBSD/openssh-cipher-none.patch Go to /usr/src/crypto/openssh, then apply the patch and rebuild libssh, ssh and sshd. Then you can use "-c none". I use "scp -c none" a lot within my internal network to transfer files between slow boxes. Encryption isn't really required there, but I can still use all of ssh'd features such as .ssh/authorized_keys, aliases via .ssh/config etc. I considered submitting the patch for official inclusion, but the OpenSSH people would reject it because they call it "insecure", and the FreeBSD people would reject it because they say the patch should be submitted to the OpenSSH people. *sigh* :-( Best regards Oliver -- Oliver Fromme, secnetix GmbH & Co.
