While you have already gotten a correct reply on this request, I am
still curious as to which direction you intended this NDA to work?
Is it so that you will not tell OpenSSH people about secrets or did
you expect it to work the other way around?

If one department is putting pressure on another inside Dell, how do
you think it would affect OpenSSH which is already being given away
for any purpose to anyone?

I would understand this to some degree if you were to try to dangle a
ridiculous amount of money in front of someone in order to have them
bind themselves legally to you (or your cyber team) but this
suggestion above sounds like a weird and bad deal for the other party,
apart from the slightly obvious "we do not understand open source"
hints from your end.

Doing 3 minutes of research shows that Dell already uses openssh for
iDrac which can be seen here:

so go talk to those people internally on how to make it work without
bothering the OpenSSH developers with silly requests.
