Well underway getting up a new webserver with OS/2 as OS. I ran into to an old problem.... ssh under os2. There is a pack available from this url:

http://home.snafu.de/hmstahl/ssh/sshos2.html#install

but, as seen this un*x port has some rather big limits... anyone have suggestion on other solutions to be used to get Secure Shell for remote system to an os2 server?

Well, I got it to work, so that wasn't any problem. You had to creat the keys yourself among other. And You are also only able to creat one user.... so it was sort of unusable since I had the need to set up more users, but still wanted to keep track of who doing what. But, okey, it does the work.... but far from what You are used to on other OS. Sorry!

It looks like this story gets a followup! Since there was a posting regarding from what I could figure out a Russian project for SSHd for OS2. Check out following url for more information:

http://devcenter.os2.ru/openssh/

Or let me quote:
OpenSSH is a FREE version of the SSH protocol suite of network connectivity tools that increasing numbers of people on the Internet are coming to rely on.
OpenSSH encrypts all traffic (including passwords) to effectively eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other network-level attacks. OpenSSH supports SSH 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 protocols.

At this time, current devel version of OpenSSH/2 is available. OpenSSH Server starts VIO-programms through tnpipe like sshd1. Tnpipe doesn't required if you're a user only of command-line utilities.
