[cobalt-security] OpenSSH 3.1 HowTo build it from sources



Hi all,

for those who want wait 'til an unofficial PKG for a fixed OpenSSH comes out, 
here are quick and dirty instructions on how to build OpenSSH 3.1 from 
sources. Tested on RaQ3 and RaQ4 with previous installations of 
OpenSSH-3.0.2pl1 from pkgmaster.com:

Telnet or SSH into your box and su to root.

Fetch the sources from OpenSSH:

wget ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/portable/openssh-3.1p1.tar.gz

Exctract 'em

tar zxvf openssh-3.1p1.tar.gz

Build it:

cd openssh-3.1p1
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --with-pam
make
make install

Restart SSH:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd restart

Done.
