 Acutally, no, 1.2.12 was free. after that it was
non-commercial/educational only, and as of version 2 it's something to
the effect of only left handed virgins who are teaching their children
and only while they are teaching them or something like that ;)

 Which is free.

Plus, it is still restricted to non-commercial use in the US (unless you
have an RSA license).

On the other hand, if anyone wants to help me test a port of LSH (0.9.5)
which is a GPL SECSH implementation interoperable with SSH 2.0 (except for
file transfers) I'm working on just such a beast (the port, I'm not doing
much work with lsh, except for finding bugs).  It's not quite everything
that SSH is yet, as the keys aren't passphrase-protected yet, and it
doesn't have a file-transfer function, but it's improving rapidly.

I had originally hoped to have the port ready for 4.0, but the 4.0 release
coincided with some major steps towards stability for LSH.

*BUT* OpenSSH is still v1. How can OpenSSH talk to a v2 commercial product?
