The second edition of our O'Reilly book, "SSH, The Secure Shell: The
Definitive Guide," is being published in May 2005.

Lots of new information... here's a teaser:

- Over 100 new features, options, and configuration keywords in
OpenSSH and SSH Tectia (formerly called "SSH Secure Shell" or "SSH2")
 
- Expanded material on the SSH-2 protocol and its internals, including
a step-by-step tour through the transport, authentication, and
connection phases. Overall emphasis on SSH-2 rather than SSH-1.

- Running OpenSSH on Microsoft Windows and Macintosh OS X.

- All-new chapters on Windows software such as Tectia, SecureCRT, and
PuTTY.

- Scalable authentication techniques for large installations,
including X.509 certificates.

- Single sign-on between Linux and Windows via Kerberos/GSSAPI.

- Logging and debugging in greater depth.

- Tectia's metaconfiguration, subconfiguration, and plugins, with
examples.

There's no web page yet on oreilly.com, but I'll post when it becomes
available.

We hope you'll enjoy the new book.
