10/9    Shouldn't we upgrade to OpenSSH/OpenSSL soon?
        \_ why "should" we? -shac
           \_ Because of inherent weaknesses in the SSHv1
              protocol that are corrected in SSHv2 which
              \_ must protect uber-super-sekrit soda crap?!?
              is implemented by OpenSSH.
                \_ and why then should we use OpenSSH instead of the
                   free (to academic institutions) ssh2 server?  -tom
                     \_ OpenSSH default install allows connections
                        to/from Either SSH 1or2 and at least one of
                        the commercial SSH2 servers doesn't pretend to
                        attempt validation on bad names. (not that
                        that matters on SODA) -crebbs
                        \_ the ssh2 server also allows connections to/from
                           either ssh 1 or 2.  -tom
