OpenSSH is a complete implementation of the SSH protocol (version 2) for secure remote login, command execution and file transfer. It includes a client ssh and server sshd, file transfer utilities scp and sftp as well as tools for key generation (ssh-keygen), run-time key storage (ssh-agent) and a number of supporting programs. This is a port of OpenBSD's OpenSSH to most Unix-like operating systems, including Linux, OS X and Cygwin. Portable OpenSSH polyfills OpenBSD APIs that are not available elsewhere, adds sshd sandboxing for more operating systems and includes support for OS-native authentication and auditing (e.g. using PAM). There are many build-time customization options available.

Features

  • Portable OpenSSH is built using autoconf and make
  • It requires a working C compiler, standard library and headers
  • libcrypto from either LibreSSL or OpenSSL may also be used
  • OpenSSH may be built without it supporting a subset of crypto algorithms
  • zlib is optional; without it transport compression is not supported
  • FIDO security token support needs libfido2 and its dependencies
