Hello,
I have been testing ssh240, ssh241, and ossh252p2 on Solaris
machines for performance. As most people have probably found
out, secure shell is very slow. We are leaning at using open secure
shell since it has faster transfer rates. I was curious if anyone has
modified the open secure shell code to include a cipher of none.
I know this defeats the purpose of using secure shell but was
curious since it is an option on secure shell 240 and 241.
Thanks for any input.
