Since the 7.x series are binary-compatible, I believe that the openssh rpms that Red Hat has just released for 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 will work fine on your machine. > If I have to compile, so be it. Rebuilding isn't very difficult. - As root, run the command "chown -R user.user /usr/src/redhat" where "user" is the name of a user without priviledges. - As user, download the .src.rpm for Red Hat 7.1 - As user, run the command "rpm -Uvh openssh-3.1p1-9.src.rpm" - As user, run the command "rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/openssh-server" - If your system complains about missing packages, install them as root, either using up2date or from the CDs - If all packages are installed, the rpmbuild command will build all the openssh rpms and put them in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 - As root, install the rpms and run the command "service sshd restart" Voila, you're done!
