Hi. I hope this helps someone.

I have built openssh-3.1p1-1_StackGuard and associated packages based on
redhats update for immunix 7.0.

1) There are a couple of gotchas - the specedit modified spec generate a
package which doesn't the original - thus when you do a rpm --erase to
remove the original you also end up killing your new package.

2) The other thing to note using redhats rpm is that you must edit the
spec file to
%define build 6x 1
immunix 7.0 looks more like redhat 6.2 than 7.0 in some respects.

3) you need to restart after installation :)

Recipe:
------
wget ftp://updates.redhat.com:21/7.0/en/os/SRPMS/openssh-3.1p1-1.src.rpm

rpm -Uvh openssh-3.1p1-1.src.rpm

cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS

specedit openssh.spec

vi openssh.spec
     /define build
     then change from 0 to 1 to set to rh6.x build
     :wq

rpm -bb openssh.spec

cd /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386

ls
   (to make sure the packages are there)

rpm -qa | grep openssh

rpm --erase {whatever the above command revealed to you}

rpm -Uvh --nodeps openssh*.rpm

then remember to restart sshd, or you will still be running the old one:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd restart

Good luck, I hope this helps someone

Cheers,
Leon
