    Portable OpenSSH

    Portable OpenSSH

    Complete implementation of the SSH protocol

    Portable OpenSSH is a cross-platform implementation of the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol that provides encrypted communication and secure remote access over untrusted networks. It originates from the OpenSSH project maintained by the OpenBSD community and adapts the core OpenBSD implementation so it can run on many operating systems including Linux, macOS, and Windows. The software suite enables administrators and developers to securely log into remote systems, transfer files, and create encrypted tunnels for network traffic. By encrypting all communications between client and server, it protects against threats such as eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and data interception. The portable distribution follows the development of the main OpenSSH codebase while adding compatibility layers for multiple operating systems and authentication systems.

    Russh

    Russh

    Rust SSH client & server library

    Russh provides a Rust library for implementing SSH clients and servers with a modern, async-friendly design. It exposes building blocks for authentication, channel management, port forwarding, and key handling, allowing you to embed SSH functionality directly into Rust applications. The API is designed to be explicit and composable, making it possible to implement custom behaviors like reverse tunnels, interactive shells, and service multiplexing. Because performance and safety are central, the code leverages Rust’s type system to reduce classes of runtime errors common in network protocol implementations. The project also includes examples and discussion threads that show how other tools integrate it for web-based clients or gateway services. For teams building terminals, proxies, or embedded management planes, it offers a robust foundation without shelling out to external binaries.

    HPN-SSH is a series of performance patches for OpenSSH. By addressing network limitations and CPU limitations significant throughput performance can be realized. Gains of close to two orders of magnitude are possible on long fat network paths. The official git repo is now available at http://github.com/rapier1/openssh-portable. The Sourceforge repository should not be seen as the canonical repository for HPN-SSH. We will update it as we can but users should look to github to generate patches We also support Ubuntu packages. Add them to your package manager with `sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rapier1/hpnssh` Fedora RPMs can be added with, `sudo dnf copr enable rapier1/hpnssh`
