Default how to get openssh for aix

Hello All.

I'm looking for an openssh package for a couple AIX boxes I just
inherited. Is 'the bull' still the place to get the precompiled
binaries?

Thanks

https://sourceforge.net/projects/openssh-aix

One of the places, yes, although from a quick glance it looks like they
haven't been updated in a while.

Note that those are for AIX 5.1 and up so if you have an older version
they won't help.

I also publish a set of smit-installable packages of current[1]
OpenSSH which work back as far as AIX 4.2.1. They can be found at
http://www.zip.com.au/~dtucker/openssh/ . There's also a brief comparison
between those and the other available ones.

[1] OK, "almost current". I haven't packages 4.2p1 yet.

IBM moved the projects they used to host on developerworks, including
their OpenSSH-on-AIX packages, to sourceforge (a link to which was
posted upthread).
