[OpenIndiana-discuss] Heads up OpenSSH config change

[Till Wegmüller]

Hello everyone.

We have recently packaged OpenSSH 9.9 and have found that this also 
requires us to distribute a configuration change. If you have not edited 
your SSH Config this will not effect you. If you have edited your 
sshd_config you will need to run the following sed script before you run 
pkg update.

sed -i "s/ListenAddress ::/#ListenAddress ::/g" /etc/ssh/sshd_config

Alternatively make sure that all ListenAddress directives are either 
Uncommented or commented out.

The reason for this config change is, that we had a differing behaviour 
on our OS for how ListenAdress works compared to what you find on the 
internet. We do not know what introduced this behaviour in the past but 
it seems to have been fixed upstream. We thus make sure OpenSSH behaves 
as people expect it to when changing the config.

Greetings
