Forwarded From: "Jay D. Dyson" <jdysonat_private> Courtesy of comp.security.ssh From: Jonas Wallden <jonaswat_private> I am happy to announce the release of NiftyTelnet 1.1 with SSH support. As far as I know this is the first free SSH client for MacOS. To download, please visit <http://www.lysator.liu.se/~jonasw/freeware.html>. It is a fat binary which runs on both 68K and PowerPC Macs. This client implements a subset of the SSH 1.5 protocol. At the moment only password authentication is supported, and the client is also lacking port forwarding, compression and scp to mention a few things. I am considering these features for future versions, though. Unfortunately this client cannot be used within North America since it contains an implementation of the RSA public-key cryptography algorithm. This algorithm conflicts with a RSA Data Security, Inc patent in these countries. I suggest affected users wait for BetterTelnet 2.0 SSH to be released or get the commercial F-Secure SSH program from Data Fellows, Inc instead. Please read the included documentation before redistributing this program. Feedback such as bug reports, comments or suggestions are appreciated. I will be off the Net for about a week starting tomorrow so don't expect me to reply immediately. -- Jonas ............... ....................... ................................... jonas wallden internet e-mail world wide web home page mac hacker jonaswat_private http://www.lysator.liu.se/~jonasw -o- Subscribe: mail majordomoat_private with "subscribe isn".
