it's trust your source... as in who you get what from...

Thanks... but thats ok...  while I perfer the standard redhat 9 version
which seems more stable and they also seem to be in advance of changes that
appear at openssh.org.  and yes I did build the raq2 current version for fun
and so I can maybe help more people not wack their raq.

well this started with my disagreement that solar should make updates...  :)
still makes me laugh.

There are many diffrences between us... and I'm not trying to say any of us
is a better choice... I'm just saying that sun should continue to make
updates and not depend on any of us for fast fixes as most often they are
built poorly and most often are from unknown locations...

Trust with me starts with an established bussiness.  Things like a
storefront, or an established name, and forms filled out in a professional
manner...  I would discount things like locations I cannot visit, and forms
that use contact address like leckmich@xxxxxxx (whois solarspeed.net)
