This is a new major upstream release. The Cygwin release is created from the vanilla sources. It contains one Cygwin-specific change which hasen't been mentioned in the official release message: * The ssh-host-config script usually writes an "ssh" entry into the Windows' /etc/services file. The code didn't work correctly in all circumstances if case-sensitivity is enabled on the system (see http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-specialnames.html#pathnames-casesensitive). This has been fixed in the ssh-host-config with this release. The official release message of 5.5p1: ==================================================================== OpenSSH 5.5 has just been released. It will be available from the mirrors listed at http://www.openssh.com/ shortly. OpenSSH is a 100% complete SSH protocol version 1.3, 1.5 and 2.0 implementation and includes sftp client and server support. Once again, we would like to thank the OpenSSH community for their continued support of the project, especially those who contributed code or patches, reported bugs, tested snapshots or donated to the project. More information on donations may be found at: http://www.openssh.com/donations.html This is a bugfix release.
