        !           307:        <li>Used exclusive locks under /dev/ to ensure single instances of <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/resolvd.8">resolvd(8)</a>, <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/slaacd.8">slaacd(8)</a> and <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/dhcpleased.8">dhcpleased(8)</a>.

                    375:        <li>Switched <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/scp.1">scp(1)</a> back to using the original scp/rcp protocol by default for release.
                    376:        <li>Made <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/scp.1">scp(1)</a> SFTP mode (including error logging) more scp-like.

                    392:        <li>Prevented a hang in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a> when interrupted.
                    393:        <li>Matched host certificates against host public keys in <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/sshd.8">sshd(8)</a>, allowing use of certificates with private keys held in an ssh-agent.

                    751: if you know nothing about ports
                    752: at this point.  This text is not a manual of how to use ports.
                    753: Rather, it is a set of notes meant to kickstart the user on the
                    754: OpenBSD ports system.
                    755: <p>
                    756: The <i>ports/</i> directory represents a CVS checkout of our ports.
                    757: As with our complete source tree, our ports tree is available via
                    758: <a href="anoncvs.html">AnonCVS</a>.
                    759: So, in order to keep up to date with the -stable branch, you must make
                    760: the <i>ports/</i> tree available on a read-write medium and update the tree
                    761: with a command like:
                    762: <blockquote><pre>
                    763: # <kbd>cd /usr/ports</kbd>
                    764: # <kbd>cvs -d anoncvs@server.openbsd.org:/cvs update -Pd -rOPENBSD_7_0</kbd>
                    765: </pre></blockquote>
                    766: <p>
                    767: [Of course, you must replace the server name here with a nearby anoncvs
                    768: server.]
                    769: <p>
                    770: Note that most ports are available as packages on our mirrors. Updated
                    771: ports for the 7.0 release will be made available if problems arise.
                    772: <p>
                    773: If you're interested in seeing a port added, would like to help out, or just
                    774: would like to know more, the mailing list
                    775: <a href="mail.html">ports@openbsd.org</a> is a good place to know.
