Hi, it seems the 2.5.0p1 announcement on www.openssh.com went out a little bit too early ;). Just curious, why 2.4 was skipped? I don't believe this is just to have a higher version number than the competition ;). I see 2.5.0 is there, but no 2.5.0p1 yet even on ftp.openbsd.org itself. Looking at the CVS tree, I see the two bugs I reported to this list some time ago (with no response) are

Hello, does NUT support Powerware Prestige EXT 1000VA / PowerWorks A30 models in smart mode? I don't see them mentioned in the compatibility list (only Powerware 3115 and 5119 are there, listed as supported only by the "genericups" driver). Is the protocol known to be compatible with any other, supported UPS types? Thanks, Marek

Hello, looking at the pty handling in OpenSSH 2.3.0p1 (hasn't changed much in CVS, as far as I can tell after a quick look at it), I can see that if the system provides both /dev/ptmx and openpty() types of pty interface, the latter is preferred. This is the case on Linux with glibc 2.1.3 and most likely later versions too. However, openpty() is documented to be dangerous - quote from the
