Well, computer and communications security is more than just a good key parser. It also involves protocols, procedures, audits, proper clocks, etc. But I digress.... I don't know what you mean by T&M, but maybe you might find dropbear SSH useful: http://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html I make no claims as to the secuirty "goodness" of Dropbear SSH; I only know that it exists. Be aware that getting enough entropy in the entropy pool to generate good host keys on an embedded platform with no mouse or keyboard can be a problem. But you only have to do that once really, if you never rotate keys. And watch out for those Australian drop-bears, I hear they are deadly.
