Hey everybody,
I've noticed that since upgrading to the woody/updates ssh package
(3.3p10.0woody1) My logs show "Accepted hostbased" instead of "Accepted
publickey" whenever a user logs in with a public key. This is using
protocol version 2, with clients of the same version (running on sid),
and a

Just watch out for when that symlink changes to point to woody instead
of potato. I'd say it's probably safer to keep them saying potato, at
least right now, when that

Hi,
I'd heard that it's better to use "dselect update" than "apt-get update"
because the former also updates dpkg's available database (which seems
to me is pretty important).
I've started using aptitude, but have gotten myself in the habit of
running "deslect update", and wonder if this is still
