Deploying OpenSSH on AIX.

Learn how to improve the security and integrity of your AIX® servers using network services provided by the OpenSSH implementation of the Secure Shell protocol.

This tutorial is designed for administrators of IBM RS/6000 systems who wish to improve the security and integrity of their servers running AIX by replacing standard insecure network services with those provided by the OpenSSH implementation of the Secure Shell protocol.

Neither general network security, nor the use of the SSH client software is discussed in-depth in this tutorial. The primary focus of this tutorial is to detail the necessary components, steps, and configuration required to compile OpenSSH and its prerequisites from source to deploy across AIX systems.

That's just the beginning, though. read more...
