We're in the middle of implementing SSH, and a concern was raised.
I'm still in the process of finding an answer, but wanted to find out
from others how they did it.
Scenario:
-- Multiple *nix platforms: HP-UX, AIX, Solaris, Linux (RHELv3), and
Tru64(ssh2)
-- Different versions between platforms:
-- HP-UX OpenSSH 3.9
-- AIX OpenSSH 3.8
-- Solaris OpenSSH 3.7(?)
-- RHEL OpenSSH 3.6.1p2
-- Tru64 SSH2 v3.2.3
The concern is whether or not an OpenSSH sshd_config file can be
standardized, and implemented across the various systems/platforms
with OpenSSH. At the moment, SSH2 isn't part of the scope.
Some here are saying it's possible. I've taken the stance that it's
not good business practice to build a single sshd_config file for all
platforms. Instead, I'm proposing one sshd_config per platform. So,
at the moment, I have the task of proving my point about building per
platform/version being the correct way to do it.
Anyone have any thoughts or insights into one way or the other?
Thanks.
