IMPORTANT WARNING: SSH LICENCE CHANGE
With version 1.2.13, SSH Communications, Ltd.'s (Tatu Yl÷nen's) SSH package
underwent its first change to a more restrictive licence (of two, thus far):
Versions Licence Terms
-------- -------------
earliest - 1.2.12: Free software, satisfying the Open Source Definiton.
1.2.13 - 1.2.27: "Companies are permitted to use this program as long
as it is not used for revenue-generating purposes."
1.2.28 and up: Adds, among other things: "For the avoidance of doubt,
the following are considered examples of commercial
uses of the Software: (1) use at or for a commercial
enterprise."
For full details, see the file named COPYING, included with each version.
OpenSSH, OSSH, or LSH (SSH server & client implementations by third parties)
remain freely usable for any purpose. The first two of those were derived
from Yl÷nen's v. 1.2.12. LSH was written from scratch.
