I want to learn your suggestion because what if I need to upgrade again from FC3 on the new install.. I consider myself not so advance in Linux but I am always willing to learn. Any links to teach me how to build an RPM. I will deploy this my experimental machine.
Thanks for the advice.

We installed Linux on the box from a RH7.2 CD so I guess it was all right off the CD. I did a rpm -qa and my version is openssh-server-2.9p2-7. And actually I wanted to upgrade the openssh but there were a lot of dependencies. My problem really re-started on an attack on SSH on our box. I am not sure if my OpenSSH version have a vulnerability but my guess it has. Thanks for the advices guys.
OMG. Please, for your sake I hope you upgrade this soon! All you need to do is build an RPM yourself given the spec file in the OpenSSH tarball. Remember to disable all the extra baggage in the spec file about askpass and Kerberos so that things build smoothly. If you're redeploying on many machines I would recommend you also set the static libcrypto so that you can just copy the RPM's over and not worry about openssl versions. Be careful about OpenSSL versions that have been known to have vulnerabilities as well...
