_Description: Generate a new configuration file for OpenSSH?
14
This version of OpenSSH has a considerably changed configuration file from
15
the version shipped in Debian 'Potato', which you appear to be upgrading
16
from. This package can now generate a new configuration file
17
(/etc/ssh/sshd.config), which will work with the new server version, but
18
will not contain any customizations you made with the old version.
20
Please note that this new configuration file will set the value of
21
'PermitRootLogin' to 'yes' (meaning that anyone knowing the root password
22
can ssh directly in as root). Please read the README.Debian file for
23
more details about this design choice.
25
It is strongly recommended that you choose to generate a new
26
configuration file now.

_Description: Do you want to risk killing active SSH sessions?
32
The currently installed version of /etc/init.d/ssh is likely to kill
33
all running sshd instances. If you are doing this upgrade via an SSH
34
session, you're likely to be disconnected and leave the upgrade
37
This can be fixed by manually adding "--pidfile /var/run/sshd.pid" to
38
the start-stop-daemon line in the stop section of the file.

Template: ssh/encrypted_host_key_but_no_keygen
42
_Description: New host key mandatory
43
The current host key, in /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key, is encrypted with the
44
IDEA algorithm. OpenSSH can not handle this host key file, and the
45
ssh-keygen utility from the old (non-free) SSH installation does not
46
appear to be available.
48
You need to manually generate a new host key.

Template: ssh/disable_cr_auth
53
_Description: Disable challenge-response authentication?
54
Password authentication appears to be disabled in the current OpenSSH
55
server configuration. In order to prevent users from logging in using
56
passwords (perhaps using only public key authentication instead) with
57
recent versions of OpenSSH, you must disable challenge-response
58
authentication, or else ensure that your PAM configuration does not allow
59
Unix password file authentication.
61
If you disable challenge-response authentication, then users will not be
62
able to log in using passwords. If you leave it enabled (the default
63
answer), then the 'PasswordAuthentication no' option will have no useful
64
effect unless you also adjust your PAM configuration in /etc/pam.d/ssh.
