i think you may be confusing what is included in potato: Package: ssh Version: 1:1.2.3-9.2 Priority: optional Section: non-US/main supports SSH v1 only. Potato froze several months before OpenSSH 2.0 came out(which i think was the first to have basic support for SSH protocol v2?) so it never made it into potato. and because potato is released, OpenSSH 2 will never make it in since it is more then a fix, its a full upgrade. i don't know where you got Openssh 2.3.0 from but it was not from the official potato distribution.. nate
