There are significant differences between OpenSSH 5.x, which is in
RHEL 6 and which we can expect in CentOS 6, and OpenSSH 4.x as
deployed in RHEL 5.
One rather startling difference is that remote SSH commands, such as
'ssh targethost echo $PATH', will not have the contents of your remote
servers's ".bashrc" read in for bash users. The handling of .bashrc
*CHANGED* between OpenSSH releases. This caused me a big problem a
week ago. RHEL 6 addressed this by updates to bash, but we're very
unlikely to see those backported to RHEL 5 and thus CentOS 5.
This kind of mismatched feature handling is why updating single
components can become a very serious a nightmare in the long run.
