Obtain the FC10 SRPM, unpack it, change tcp_wrappers-devel to tcp_wrappers in the spec file and build that on EL5.

Pros:
- rpm still thinks you have sshd installed
- version of new ssh > EL5 ssh except if someone increments the epoch so no surprise upgrades to reverting functionality - assuming it doesn't work you can always backout by installing the old EL5 ssh rpms

Cons:
- you build the rpm (looks like a oneliner change as described above)
- you get to support it yourself (including any possible security fixes)


HTH :)

SSHD 5.x it is not in EPEL. It is probably included in Fedora 9 or 10,
or I could compile from source. Which approach do you think is best
considering maintaining the non-standard sshd?
