Right. One of the things I haven't copied from the Oracle work was putting tcpwrappers back in. I am still considering whether it might be worth bringing this back for us for a little while give people time to transition. The release is Thursday, so there's some time to discuss this still. > Since we're on the subject of refinements to ssh, it would sure be nice > (once the patches are brought forward to 7.x) if the hpn-ssh patches were > applied to the default sshd/ssh here. The NetBSD guys have already ported the HPN patch set forwards onto 7.1, which I did have a trial run with and it seems like they apply and work. They have made merge mistakes in the past though when forward-porting the HPN set, and I haven't yet had time to sit down and audit the diff carefully enough to be satisfied with it. I'd consider bringing this in later, perhaps plus/minus consideration for the fact that it introduces new configuration options. If we add it we will need to retain config compatibility for those options for a very long time (especially if they appear in the default config, eg HpnDisabled), which is worth careful thought. ------------------------------------------- smartos-discuss Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/184463/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/184463/25769125-55cfbc00 Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=25769125&id_secret=25769125-7688e9fb Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
