About

Dropbear is a relatively small SSH server and client. It runs on a variety of Unix platforms. Dropbear is open-source software, distributed under an MIT-style license. Dropbear is particularly useful for "embedded"-type Linux (or other Unix) systems, such as wireless routers. If you want to be notified of new releases, or for general discussion of Dropbear, you can subscribe to the relatively low-volume mailing list. With a small memory footprint suitable for memory-constrained environments, Dropbear can compile to a 110kB statically linked binary with uClibc on x86 (only minimal options selected) Dropbear server implements X11 forwarding and authentication-agent forwarding for OpenSSH clients. The server, client, keygen, and key converter can be compiled into a single binary (like busybox) Features can easily be disabled when compiling to save space. The multi-hop mode uses SSH TCP forwarding to tunnel through multiple SSH hosts in a single command.

About

OpenSSH is the premier connectivity tool for remote login with the SSH protocol. It encrypts all traffic to eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other attacks. In addition, OpenSSH provides a large suite of secure tunneling capabilities, several authentication methods, and sophisticated configuration options. Remote operations are done using ssh, scp, and sftp. Key management with ssh-add, ssh-keysign, ssh-keyscan, and ssh-keygen. The service side consists of sshd, sftp-server, and ssh-agent. OpenSSH is developed by a few developers of the OpenBSD project and made available under a BSD-style license. OpenSSH is incorporated into many commercial products, but very few of those companies assist OpenSSH with funding. Contributions towards OpenSSH can be sent to the OpenBSD Foundation. Since telnet and rlogin are insecure, all operating systems should ship with support for the SSH protocol included. The SSH protocol is available in two incompatible varieties, SSH 1 and SSH 2.
