lsh

Availability and IPv6 support

Name

IPv6 support

Supported operating systems

lsh

included

UNIX, Linux *BSD

Description

A secure (encrypted) remote shell compatible with ssh 2.0. lsh is a client that can connect to the corresponding lshd server. It uses the SECSH protocol, which means that it is compatible with SSH 2.0, except for file transfer, which is not part of SECSH. SECSH uses compression and encryption algorithms that are unencumbered, and lsh itself is GPL. lsh is not as feature-rich as OpenSSH, as it doesn't currently support password-protected keyrings, the SSH 1.X protocols, TCP wrappers, etc. On the other hand, it doesn't require OpenSSL, and doesn't take a lot of work to avoid patented algorithms.
