1.34 sobrado 221: Experimental host key rotation support. Add a protocol extension
1.28 sobrado 222: for a server to inform a client of all its available host keys after
223: authentication has completed. The client may record the keys in
224: <tt>known_hosts</tt>, allowing it to upgrade to better host key
225: algorithms and a server to gracefully rotate its keys. The client

775: described <a href="anoncvs.html">here</a>.

796: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
797: OpenBSD ports system.
798: <p>
799: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS (see the manpage for

803: source tree, our ports tree is available via
804: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
1.12 rpe 805: So, in order to keep up to date with the <i>-stable</i> branch, you must make
806: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
807: with a command like:
1.1 deraadt 808: <p>
809: <ul><pre>
810: # <strong>cd /usr/ports</strong>
811: # <strong>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_5_7</strong>
812: </pre></ul>
813: <p>
814: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
815: server.]
816: <p>
1.16 rpe 817: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
1.9 jca 818: ports for the 5.7 release will be made available if problems arise.
1.1 deraadt 819: <p>
820: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
821: would like to know more, the mailing list
822: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
