252: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
253: Add support for key exchange using <i>elliptic-curve Diffie Hellman</i>
254: in Daniel Bernstein's <i>Curve25519</i>. This key exchange method is
255: the default when both the client and server support it.
256: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,

258: Add support for <i>ED25519</i> as a public key type. ED25519 is
259: a elliptic curve signature scheme that offers better security than
260: <i>ECDSA</i> and <i>DSA</i> and good performance. It may be used for
261: both <i>user</i> and <i>host</i> keys.
262: <li>Add a new private key format that uses a <i>bcrypt KDF</i> to better

264: ED25519 keys, but may be requested when generating or saving
265: existing keys of other types via the <tt>-o</tt>

273: combines Daniel Bernstein's <i>ChaCha20</i> stream cipher and
274: <i>Poly1305 MAC</i> to build an authenticated encryption mode. Details

278: Refuse <i>RSA</i> keys from old proprietary clients and servers that
279: use the obsolete <i>RSA+MD5</i> signature scheme. It will still be
280: possible to connect with these clients/servers but <b>only DSA keys
281: will be accepted, and OpenSSH will refuse connection entirely in a
282: future release</b>.

286: exchange hash calculation.
287: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
288: Increase the size of the <i>Diffie-Hellman groups</i> requested for

294: instead of raw public keys. (requested as bz#1908)
295: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:

305: This allows unqualified names to be canonicalised to fully-qualified
306: domain names to eliminate ambiguity when looking up keys in

325: connected file descriptor back to
326: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>.

335: when processing <tt>Match</tt> blocks, skip '<tt>exec</tt>' clauses
336: other clauses predicates failed to match.
337: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
338: if hostname canonicalisation is enabled and results in the destination

340: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh_config&sektion=5">ssh_config(5)</a>
341: files using the new destination hostname. This gives '<tt>Host</tt>'

597: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
598: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
599: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
600: <i>CD1:5.5/i386/floppy55.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
601:
602: <p>
603: Use <i>CD1:5.5/i386/floppyB55.fs</i> instead for greater SCSI controller
604: support, or <i>CD1:5.5/i386/floppyC55.fs</i> for better laptop support.

612: If you are planning on dual booting OpenBSD with another OS, you will need to

616: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located
617: at <i>CD1:5.5/tools/rawrite.exe</i>. To make the boot floppy under a Unix OS,
618: use the
619: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>
620: utility. The following is an example usage of
621: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,
622: where the device could be "floppy", "rfd0c", or
