If this isn't the right place for this, I apologize. Feel free to set followups appropriately. I'm running ppp on a -current system (12/7/2000 vintage) named `moran'. I'm using it as a gateway for small in-home network (a couple of windoze boxes and a laptop running -stable), and I have NAT

YA ssh question (ssh-askpass?)

I just built- and installed- world about an hour ago, and removed the ssh-1.2.27 port. The build and install went without a problem, but I've apparently lost some functionality. I spend most of my time in xemacs, and I make heavy use of CVS to access a couple of remote repositories. I've had

PPP problem + mailing list archive problem

Well, I'd hoped I'd be able to do a little more before bothering the list, but... I'd last built world around the end of April, with no problems. I then grew a fairly heavy workload, and so didn't get a chance to build world again until 2 days ago (May 24). During that time, something changed
