OpenSSH RPMs for old CentOS

For some reasons I have to maintain OpenSSH up to date for CentOSs that are no longer have supports.

This openssh package has OpenSSL statically linked.

Current Version:

  • OpenSSH 9.0p1
  • OpenSSL 1.1.1o

Supported CentOS:

  • CentOS 5
  • CentOS 6
  • CentOS 7

Build Requirements:

yum groupinstall -y "Development Tools"
yum install -y imake rpm-build pam-devel krb5-devel zlib-devel libXt-devel libX11-devel gtk2-devel

for CentOS5:

  • Perl 5.10+ is needed (just ./configure.gnu && make && make install)
  • gcc44 is prefered

Security

As OLD systems that are still on production, TOP security is hardly the first concern, while compatibility is.

This package provede the following options in /etc/ssh/sshd_config to act like the triditional version sshd.

PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa
UsePAM yes
PermitRootLogin yes
UseDNS no
