Software News : OpenSSH 4.6p1-2 Features and Fixes

Posted by ssolie on 2007/8/20 15:30:00 (2389 reads) News by the same author

Thanks to feedback from the Amiga community I have been able to add some features and fix some bugs in my OpenSSH port to make it better than ever. For example, I can edit files with vi from my Mac OS X box with TERM set to 'amiga' using standard CON:. No other special software required.

Grab it from OS4Depot today.

Changes include:
- now uses $USER when trying to connect when no user has been specified instead of defaulting to root (thanks Val Marti)
- replaced polling of window size change events with an input.device handler which fixes cut & paste (thanks Alex Carmona)
- fixed server timeout issues caused by the use of select() with a one second timeout (thanks Alex Carmona)
- now uses waitselect() to reliably detect Amiga signals
- added a workaround for a problem with the WaitSelect() function which would miss signals when the timeout is zero
- switched to using the new mutex API

EDIT: @ssolie, maybe you should fallback to a standard path in this special case, for example SYS: and issue a BIG warning about that ? Thank you for providing us with such an essential program

Isn't good idea (the proposed location). I would make it default to T: (yep, it's gone after reboot, but it won't throw files where you don't want them) I wish I could give it (ssh) a spin. Essential tool indeed. Jack
