I *really* need to install the hpn version of openssh in Debian. The
performance of scp just sucks with the default openssh (yes, I have
improved the performance some using a "-c arcfour" cipher, but it's
still pretty bad).
How do I do this?
I do not see any packages that would do this for me (and, it would have
to be for an ARM9, to boot). So, I need to:
1) Pull the source via apt
2) Apply the HPN patch
3) Build the source
4) Install the source
Is there a good way to do this with apt? I know how to unpack an SRPM,
patch it, and repack it so that it looks like a normal RPM and then
install that. This is effectively what I want to do with Debian.
So, how do I do this?
Presumably, I want to pull the openssh-server from unstable somehow.
Then apply the patch to the source. I'm at a loss as to how to do this.
Were you able to do this? I'm interested in doing this for my home network.
Where did you get the patch? I am looking for patches/packages for both
Debian and Fedora. Is this where you got the patch from:
<http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/hpn-ssh/>
Anyone know if there is a patch available for a "no crypto" option? I
know that seems stupid, but for my own internal use between machines on
a secure network I don't need the encryption but I don't want to be
learning new commands for everything, plus if I build scripts I can
choose the encryption with a variable. Right now my throughput is
severely limited by CPU load doing the encryption. My main machine pegs
out at 100% CPU load transferring large (gigabyte sized) files.
