OK, previously i've just downloaded the openssh-x.yp1.tar.gz files,
unpacked them and then done
# ./configure --with-tcp-wrappers
# make
# make install
tweaked the config files and started the daemon and it's worked fine.
yesterday i tried v3.3p1 and now v3.4p1 and they just don't seem to work.
everything's compiled OK (with a few compiler warnings but that's what
i usually see) and the daemon starts but i get funnies when trying to 
use it.
yesterday i tried v3.3p1 on my test system and i couldn't 'slogin' to the
machine. v3.4p1 does let me login, i assume the
  "ChallengeResponseAuthentication no"
option has fixed that... ?
however, both v3.3p1 and v3.4p1 i can't use ssh to connect through to
another machine that's running v3.1p1. i get
  test-system% ssh -V
  OpenSSH_3.4p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090602f
  
  test-system% slogin -v -v -v machine2
  OpenSSH_3.4p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL 0x0090602f
  debug1: Reading configuration data /usr/local/etc/ssh_config

  debug1: Rhosts Authentication disabled, originating port will not be trusted.
  debug1: ssh_connect: needpriv 0
  slogin: machine2: Name does not resolv to supplied parameters; neither
  nodename nor servname were passed.
sshd_config contains
  ChallengeResponseAuthentication no
  UsePrivilegeSeparation no
anyone know what i'm missing/doing wrong here ?
TIA,
 john
