1.1 deraadt 180: </ul>
181: <li>New/changed features:
182: <ul>
1.3 sobrado 183: <li>Much of OpenSSH's internal code has been re-factored to be more
184: library-like. These changes are mostly not user-visible, but
185: have greatly improved OpenSSH's testability and internal layout.
186: <li>Add <tt>FingerprintHash</tt> option to
187: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
188: and
189: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>,
190: and equivalent command-line flags to the other tools to control
191: algorithm used for key fingerprints. The default changes from MD5
192: to SHA256 and format from hex to base64. Fingerprints now have the
193: hash algorithm prepended. Please note that visual host keys will also
194: be different.
195: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>,
196: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
197: Host key rotation support. Add a protocol extension for a server
198: to inform a client of all its available host keys after authentication
199: has completed. The client may record the keys in <tt>known_hosts</tt>,
200: allowing it to upgrade to better host key algorithms and a server
201: to gracefully rotate its keys. The client side of this is controlled
202: by a <tt>UpdateHostkeys</tt> config option (default on).
203: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
204: Add a

206: <tt>HostbasedKeyType</tt> option to control which host public key types

209: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
210: fix connection-killing host key mismatch errors when
211: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>
212: offers multiple ECDSA keys of different lengths.
213: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
214: when host name canonicalisation is enabled, try to parse host names
215: as addresses before looking them up for canonicalisation. Fixes
216: bz#2074 and avoiding needless DNS lookups in some cases.
217: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh-keygen&sektion=1">ssh-keygen(1)</a>,
218: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
219: <i>Key Revocation Lists</i> (KRLs) no longer require OpenSSH to be
220: compiled with OpenSSL support.

224: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
225: SSH protocol v.1 workaround for the Meyer, et al., <i>Bleichenbacher
226: Side Channel Attack</i>. Fake up a bignum key before RSA decryption.
227: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
228: Remember which public keys have been used for authentication and
229: refuse to accept previously-used keys. This allows
230: <tt>AuthenticationMethods=publickey,publickey</tt> to require that
231: users authenticate using two <i>different</i> public keys.
232: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
233: add

242: <tt>MaxAuthTries</tt>.
243: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
244: Add <tt>RevokedHostKeys</tt> option for the client to allow text-file
245: or KRL-based revocation of host keys.
246: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh-keygen&sektion=1">ssh-keygen(1)</a>,
247: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8">sshd(8)</a>:
248: Permit KRLs that revoke certificates by serial number or key ID without
249: scoping to a particular CA.
250: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
251: Add a "Match canonical" criteria that allows

253: <tt>Match</tt> blocks to trigger only in the second config pass.
254: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
255: Add a <tt>-G</tt> option to
256: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>
257: that causes it to parse its configuration and dump the result to
258: stdout, similar to "<tt>sshd -T</tt>".
259: <li><a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=ssh&sektion=1">ssh(1)</a>:
260: Allow <tt>Match</tt> criteria to be negated
261: (e.g. "<tt>Match !host</tt>").
262: <li>The regression test suite has been extended to cover more OpenSSH
263: features. The unit tests have been expanded and now cover key
264: exchange.

471: Play with your BIOS options to enable booting from a CD. The OpenBSD/i386
472: release is on CD1. If your BIOS does not support booting from CD, you will need
473: to create a boot floppy to install from. To create a boot floppy write
474: <i>CD1:5.7/i386/floppy57.fs</i> to a floppy and boot via the floppy drive.
475:
476: <p>
477: If you can't boot from a CD or a floppy disk,
478: you can install across the network using PXE as described in
479: the included INSTALL.i386 document.

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

486: To make a boot floppy under MS-DOS, use the "rawrite" utility located

488: use the
489: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>

491: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=dd&sektion=1">dd(1)</a>,

718: src.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src. This file
719: contains everything you need except for the kernel sources, which are
720: in a separate archive. To extract:
721: <p>
722: <ul><pre>
723: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src</strong>
724: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
725: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/src.tar.gz</strong>
726: </pre></ul>
727: <p>
728: sys.tar.gz contains a source archive starting at /usr/src/sys.
729: This file contains all the kernel sources you need to rebuild kernels.
730: To extract:
731: <p>
732: <ul><pre>
733: # <strong>mkdir -p /usr/src/sys</strong>
734: # <strong>cd /usr/src</strong>
735: # <strong>tar xvfz /tmp/sys.tar.gz</strong>
736: </pre></ul>
737: <p>
738: Both of these trees are a regular CVS checkout. Using these trees it
739: is possible to get a head-start on using the anoncvs servers as
740: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.
741: Using these files
742: results in a much faster initial CVS update than you could expect from
743: a fresh checkout of the full OpenBSD source tree.

1.1 deraadt 759: if you know nothing about ports
760: at this point. This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
761: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
762: OpenBSD ports system.
763: <p>
764: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for
765: <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=cvs&sektion=1&arch=i386">
766: cvs(1)</a> if
767: you aren't familiar with CVS) checkout of our ports. As with our complete
768: source tree, our ports tree is available via
769: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1.12 rpe 770: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
771: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
772: with a command like:
1.1 deraadt 773: <p>
774: <ul><pre>
775: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>
776: # <strong>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_7</strong>
777: </pre></ul>
778: <p>
779: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
780: server.]
781: <p>
1.16 rpe 782: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1.9 jca 783: ports for the 5.7 release will be made available if problems arise.
1.1 deraadt 784: <p>
785: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
786: would like to know more, the mailing list
787: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
