When using the binary package available in this directory, you need to
activate it after installation by using the license_ssh2.dat file
included on the product CD or downloaded from the e-commerce site.

Installing the Secure Shell software on AIX 4.3.x
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

You need GNU gzip in order to install SSH Secure Shell.

One place to get it is http://www-frec.bull.com/docs/download.htm.


Installation
------------

Before installation remember to backup all your configuration files in the
/etc/ssh2 directory.


1. Unpack the package using the following command

  gzip -dc <package> | tar -xvf -

  where <package> is the name of the distribution file,
  for example ssh-3.2.1-aix-4.3.x.tar.gz.


2. Install the package by issuing the following command with root privileges:

  installp -d . SSH.Secure.Shell


  If you just want to apply the package, give the following command

  installp -a -d . SSH.Secure.Shell

  If you just apply, you can reject the package later on. This is useful
  if you have a previous version installed (lslppp -l SSH.Secure.Shell).

  Of course you can also install the package using smit.


3. Now you can start the daemon by issuing the command

  /usr/local/sbin/sshd2

  or

  /etc/ssh2/sshd2 start

4. To start sshd2 automatically at boot time refer to your operating system documentation.
  You can find an example startup script from the /etc/ssh2 directory.



Uninstallation
--------------

1. Stop the Secure Shell daemon using the command

  kill `cat /etc/ssh2/sshd2_22.pid`

  or

  /etc/ssh2/sshd2 stop

2. Uninstall the package by issuing the following command with root privileges:

  installp -u SSH.Secure.Shell
