<p>Pushed from thelinuxwiki.com.</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div><br /> <br /> == modifying the version string ==<br /> <br /> rebuilding your OpenSSH from sources after modifying the version string. This also can help confuse automated attacks, because many vulnerabilities are dependent on specific versions of OpenSSH. This is done by modifying the version.h file in the OpenSSH distribution and recompiling. Change the SSH_VERSION and SSH_PORTABLE #define lines to anything you like, such as:<br /> <br /> #define SSH_VERSION &quot;MyCompany_Vers00001&quot;<br /> #define SSH_PORTABLE &quot;foo&quot;<br /> <br /> [[category:security]]</div>
