Bug#343896: HP ilo ssh support

[Matt Taggart <taggart@debian.org>]

Hi, 

This is a status update on #343896, regarding openssh-client support when 
connecting to HP integrated Lights Out management processors.

As of October 1, 2008:

* The latest firmware version for ilo1 is 1.92 (9 May 2008) and it works 
properly with recent versions of openssh-client. However it still uses the 
"mpSSH_0.0.1" version string, so it's not possible for openssh to 
differentiate. I don't know if they plan to fix this one, given it's age 
they may no longer care (although there are still tons of them deployed).

* The latest firmware version for ilo2 is 1.61 (B) (26 Sep 2008) and it 
works properly with recent versions of openssh-client. It also now uses a 
new version string of "mpSSH_0.1.0" which may help in differentiating the 
problem versions.

Thanks,
