+OpenSSH is a FREE version of the SSH protocol suite of network connectivity tools that
+increasing numbers of people on the Internet are coming to rely on. Many users of telnet,
+rlogin, ftp, and other such programs might not realize that their password is transmitted
+across the Internet unencrypted, but it is. OpenSSH encrypts all traffic (including passwords)
+to effectively eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other network-level attacks.
+Additionally, OpenSSH provides a myriad of secure tunneling capabilities, as well as a variety
+of authentication methods.
+
+The OpenSSH suite includes the ssh program which replaces rlogin and telnet, scp which
+replaces rcp, and sftp which replaces ftp. Also included is sshd which is the server side of
+the package, and the other basic utilities like ssh-add, ssh-agent, ssh-keysign, ssh-keyscan,
+ssh-keygen and sftp-server. OpenSSH supports SSH protocol versions 1.3, 1.5, and 2.0.
