4/10    Why is ssh2 better than ssh1?  Aside from sftp.  I'd like a pointer
        to technical reasons why ssh2 has improved security.
        (Yes, I already spent some time looking.) --PeterM
        \_ well, the ssh2 protocol was written more from the ground up
           rather than as modifications to a hack to a neat idea. --jon
           \_ I can see in general how rewriting the code would improve it,
              but what particular attacks are now harder/impossible? --PeterM
        \_ pure marketting + revenue
