OpenSSH

This file is part of the OpenSSH software.
The licences which components of this software fall under are as follows. First, we will summarize and say
that all components are under a BSD licence, or a licence more free than that.
OpenSSH contains no GPL code.

All rights reserved
As far as I am concerned, the code I have written for this software can be used freely for any purpose. Any
derived versions of this software must be clearly marked as such, and if the derived work is incompatible with
the protocol description in the RFC file, it must be called by a name other than "ssh" or "Secure Shell".
However, I am not implying to give any licenses to any patents or copyrights held by third parties, and the
software includes parts that are not under my direct control. As far as I know, all included source code is used
in accordance with the relevant license agreements and can be used freely for any purpose (the GNU license
being the most restrictive); see below for details. [However, none of that term is relevant at this point in time.
All of these restrictively licenced software components which he talks about have been removed from
OpenSSH, i.e.,
RSA is no longer included, found in the OpenSSL library
IDEA is no longer included, its use is deprecated
DES is now external, in the OpenSSL library
GMP is no longer used, and instead we call BN code from OpenSSL
Zlib is now external, in a library
The make-ssh-known-hosts script is no longer included
TSS has been removed
MD5 is now external, in the OpenSSL library
RC4 support has been replaced with ARC4 support from OpenSSL
Blowfish is now external, in the OpenSSL library
Note that any information and cryptographic algorithms used in this software are publicly available on the
Internet and at any major bookstore, scientific library, and patent office worldwide. More information can be
found e.g. at "http://www.cs.hut.fi/crypto".
The legal status of this program is some combination of all these permissions and restrictions. Use only at your
own responsibility. You will be responsible for any legal consequences yourself; I am not making any claims
whether possessing or using this is legal or not in your country, and I am not taking any responsibility on your
behalf.
