[nycbug-talk] openssh 4.3

[Yusuke Shinyama]

I've just grabbed the latest snapshot
(openssh-SNAP-20060112.tar.gz) and tested it.
Although the documentation (README.tun) only mentioned about
OpenBSD cases, I saw it's working between FreeBSD <-> Linux boxes too.
Haven't measured the performance, but there's a bit longer
delay when you open a tcp connection between these machines.
I will try NFS mounting between home <-> office later on...
