These and many other packages are also available via ftp at
- ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.5/packages/
+ ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.6/packages/
If you do not find a package you want on the CD, please go look at your
nearest FTP mirror site.
Select your architecture and download the tarballs of your choice. For example
to install the emacs package for i386, execute
- # mount /dev/cd0a /cdrom; pkg_add /cdrom/2.5/packages/i386/emacs-20.3.tgz
-or # pkg_add ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.5/packages/i386/emacs-20.3.tgz
+ # mount /dev/cd0a /cdrom; pkg_add /cdrom/2.6/packages/i386/emacs-20.3.tgz
+or # pkg_add ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/2.6/packages/i386/emacs-20.3.tgz
Other important packages which are not permitted on the CD (due to patents) are
available on our FTP servers (as described above). In particular, we provide
-the USA and international versions of both SSH and PGP. The filenames are:
- ssh-1.2.26-usa.tgz ssh-1.2.26-intl.tgz pgp-2.6.3-usa.tgz
- pgp-2.6.3-intl.tgz
-You are STRONGLY urged to install one of the above ssh packages and use ssh
-instead of telnet, rlogin, or rsh.

+You are STRONGLY urged to use ssh instead of telnet, rlogin, or rsh! ssh is
+included in OpenBSD, and relies on the libssl26.tar.gz package, which
+contains the patented RSA code. This package is NOT included on the CD,

Significant efforts were made to centralize all system configuration in the
/etc directory. You should be able to find each of the configuration files
