Dear mentors,

Upstream Author : rapier@psc.edu

HPNSSH is a fork of OpenSSH focused on high throughput and performance
for high speed networks. In addition to significant improved throughput
this package provides enhanced functionality such as resuming failed scp
transfers, OOB TCP stack instrument reporting for diagnostics, a
threaded AES-CTR cipher, the uses of a null cipher post-authentication
for non-interactive session (data transfer), and so forth. More
information can be found at https://psc.edu/hpn-ssh-home. This work is
funded by the National Science Foundation (award #: 2004012
https://nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=2004012).
HPNSSH does not conflict with existing OpenSSH installations.
It builds those binary packages:
hpnssh-client - secure shell (SSH) client, for secure access to
remote machines
hpnssh-server - secure shell (SSH) server, for secure access from
remote machines
hpnssh-sftp-server - secure shell (SSH) sftp server module, for SFTP
access from remote machines
hpnssh-tests - OpenSSH regression tests
hpnssh - secure shell client and server (metapackage)
hpnssh-askpass-gnome - interactive X program to prompt users for a
passphrase for ssh-add
hpnssh-client-udeb - secure shell client for the Debian installer
hpnssh-server-udeb - secure shell server for the Debian installer
To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL:

Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x
https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/h/hpnssh/hpnssh_8.8p1-hpn16v1-9.dsc
Changes for the initial release:
hpnssh (1:8.8p1-hpn16v1-9) sid; urgency=medium
.
* Updated copyright.
* Updated some debian files to work under debian as opposed
to ubuntu. Specifically hpnssh-server.runit so it creates the
correct diretcory in /etc/sv
Regards,
