A while back (March) I was sent the below reply, which contained references to patches to OpenSSH 4.7p1 that require multiple authentication. Are there any similar patches to 4.8 and/or 5.1? And is there any chance of something similar making it into the standard OpenSSH distribution? The first of these patches saved me much grief when dealing with PCI-DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards). Thanks!

The patches are made against portable 4.7p1 but I imagine should be relatively easy to adapt to openBSD. -- Jeff Simmons jsimmons@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Simmons Consulting - Network Engineering, Administration, Security "You guys, I don't hear any noise.
