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 | tar -xvf - where 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 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- More information can be found from the SSH manual's which are available at http://www.ssh.com/support/ssh and from man pages.
