%description
-SSH (Secure SHell) is a program for logging into and executing
-commands on a remote machine. SSH is intended to replace rlogin and
-rsh, and to provide secure encrypted communications between two
-untrusted hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections and
-arbitrary TCP/IP ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel.
-
-OpenSSH is OpenBSD's version of the last free version of SSH, bringing
-it up to date in terms of security and features, as well as removing
-all patented algorithms to separate libraries.
+OpenSSH is OpenBSD's SSH (Secure SHell) protocol implementation. SSH
+replaces rlogin and rsh, to provide secure encrypted communications
+between two untrusted hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections
+and arbitrary TCP/IP ports can also be forwarded over the secure
+channel. Public key authentication may be used for "passwordless"
+access to servers.
This package includes the core files necessary for both the OpenSSH
client and server. To make this package useful, you should also
install openssh-clients, openssh-server, or both.
