Title: Glacier
I have created a depot file which would allow you to install openssh,openssl and the zlib library on HP-UX 11.0

I would like to know if there's a place where I could upload the depot file so that everybody else could easily install it
rather than go through the pain of compiling it and going through all the issues I faced.

The steps to do the installation after downloading the depot are mentioned below.



To do the installation do the following:-

1. swinstall -l  openssh2_9p2depot

This will configure the system to do public key exchange, it will configure such that the sshd is invoked at system boot.

If you need to change this to password based authentication you would need to modify the sshd_config file under the /usr/local/etc directory.


Do this installation on both the server and the client.
 
After installation the following needs to be done

1. Generate the hosts keys, these keys can be generated by a shell script
/usr/local/bin/createhostkeys.sh

    ( Shell script will generate all the three kinds of key pairs)

2. Generate the key pair for client by running ssh-keygen -t <dsa> ( For
protocol 2, dsa key)

Keys will be generated in the clients $HOME/.ssh directory.

3. Copy the public key from the client into the servers $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys2 file.

This should do it.

Test using ssh -l <username>@hostname.

This is being provided only to help others quickly install openssh. I would not be able to support this or answer any questions on installation
issues, although most people in my team who used this have not experienced any issues with the depot file.
