237: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
238: Add support for key exchange using <i>elliptic-curve Diffie Hellman</i>
239: in Daniel Bernstein's <i>Curve25519</i>. This key exchange method is
240: the default when both the client and server support it.
241: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,
242: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
243: Add support for <i>ED25519</i> as a public key type. ED25519 is
244: a elliptic curve signature scheme that offers better security than
245: <i>ECDSA</i> and <i>DSA</i> and good performance. It may be used for
246: both <i>user</i> and <i>host</i> keys.
247: <li>Add a new private key format that uses a <i>bcrypt KDF</i> to better
248: protect keys at rest. This format is used unconditionally for
249: ED25519 keys, but may be requested when generating or saving
250: existing keys of other types via the <tt>-o</tt>
251: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh-keygen&sektion=1">ssh-keygen(1)</a>
252: option. We intend to make the new format the default in the near
253: future. Details of the new format are in the <tt>PROTOCOL.key</tt>
254: file.
255: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,
256: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
257: Add a new transport cipher "chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com" that
258: combines Daniel Bernstein's <i>ChaCha20</i> stream cipher and
259: <i>Poly1305 MAC</i> to build an authenticated encryption mode. Details
260: are in the <tt>PROTOCOL.chacha20poly1305</tt> file.

262: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
263: Refuse <i>RSA</i> keys from old proprietary clients and servers that
264: use the obsolete <i>RSA+MD5</i> signature scheme. It will still be
265: possible to connect with these clients/servers but <b>only DSA keys
266: will be accepted, and OpenSSH will refuse connection entirely in a
267: future release</b>.
268: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,
269: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:

271: exchange hash calculation.
272: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
273: Increase the size of the <i>Diffie-Hellman groups</i> requested for
274: each symmetric key size. New values from <i>NIST Special Publication
275: 800-57</i> with the upper limit specified by <i>RFC 4419</i>.
276: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,
277: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh-agent&sektion=1">ssh-agent(1)</a>:
278: Support <i>PKCS#11</i> tokens that only provide <i>X.509</i> certs
279: instead of raw public keys. (requested as bz#1908)
280: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
281: Add a
282: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh_config&sektion=5">ssh_config(5)</a>
283: <tt>Match</tt> keyword that allows conditional configuration to be
284: applied by matching on <i>hostname</i>, <i>user</i> and <i>result of
285: arbitrary commands</i>.
286: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
287: Add support for <i>client-side hostname canonicalisation</i> using a
288: set of <i>DNS suffixes</i> and rules in
289: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh_config&sektion=5">ssh_config(5)</a>.
290: This allows unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified
291: domain names to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in
292: <tt>known_hosts</tt> or checking host certificate names.
293: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sftp-server&sektion=8">sftp-server(8)</a>:

575: Quick installer information for people familiar with OpenBSD, and the
576: use of the "disklabel -E" command. If you are at all confused when
577: installing OpenBSD, read the relevant INSTALL.* file as listed above!

581: <ul>
582: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
583: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
584: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
585: <i>CD1:5.5/i386/floppy55.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
586:
587: <p>
588: Use <i>CD1:5.5/i386/floppyB55.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
589: support, or <i>CD1:5.5/i386/floppyC55.fs</i> for better laptop support.
590:
591: <p>
592: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
593: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
594: the included INSTALL.i386 document.
595:
596: <p>
597: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to
598: read INSTALL.i386.
599:
600: <p>
601: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
602: at <i>CD1:5.5/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
603: use the
604: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>
605: utility. The following is an example usage of
606: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,

624: The 5.5 release of OpenBSD/amd64 is located on CD2.
625: Boot from the CD to begin the install - you may need to adjust
626: your BIOS options first.
627: If you can't boot from the CD, you can create a boot floppy to install from.
628: To do this, write <i>CD2:5.5/amd64/floppy55.fs</i> to a floppy, then
629: boot from the floppy drive.
630:
631: <p>
632: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
633: you can install across the network using PXE as described in the included
634: INSTALL.amd64 document.

902: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
903: OpenBSD ports system.
904: <p>
905: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
906: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&sektion=1&arch=i386">

909: source tree, our ports tree is available via
910: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
911: So, in order to keep current with it, you must make the <i>ports/</i> tree
912: available on a read-write medium and update the tree with a command
913: like:
914: <p>
915: <ul><pre>
916: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>
917: # <strong>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_5</strong>

919: <p>
920: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
921: server.]
922: <p>
923: Note that most ports are available as packages through FTP. Updated
924: packages for the 5.5 release will be made available if problems arise.
925: <p>
926: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
927: would like to know more, the mailing list
928: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
