+	    Better error handling in ssh_file. There was some rare
+	    errors when a NFS-mounted file was opened by ssh_file and
+	    then remotely deleted during reading. That caused an
+	    endless loop. </p>
+          <p>
+	    That bug is now fixed.</p>

+	    It is now possible to start more than one daemon with a

+	    details.</p>

+	    The ssh:daemon option dh_gex_groups is extended to read a
+	    user provided ssh moduli file with generator-modulus
+	    pairs. The file is in openssh format.</p>

+          <p>
+	    There is now a file (public_key/priv/moduli) which lists
+	    size-generator-modulus triples. The purpose is to give
+	    servers the possibility to select the crypto primes
+	    randomly among a list of pregenerated triples. This
+	    reduces the risk for some attacks on diffie-hellman
+	    negotiation.</p>
+          <p>
+	    See the reference manual for public_key:dh_gex_group/4
+	    where the handling of this is described.</p>
+          <p>
+	    The ssh server (ssh:daemon) uses this.</p>

+          <p>
+	    The ssh:daemon option pwdfun now also takes a fun/4. This
+	    enables the user to 1) check userid-password in another
+	    way than the builtin algorithm, 2) implement rate
+	    limiting per user or source IP or IP+Port, and 3)
+	    implement blocking of missbehaving peers.</p>
+          <p>
+	    The old fun/2 still works as previously.</p>

+	    There is now a new option to make the server limit the
+	    size range of moduli available for the diffie-hellman
+	    group exchange negotiation. See option <c>
+	    {dh_gex_limits,{Min,Max}}</c> in ssh:daemon/3.</p>

+	    Search order for the .ssh directory are changed so

+	    The sftp receive window handling is optimized so it will
+	    not update the remote end too often. This makes "sftp
+	    mget" considerable faster.</p>

+          <p>
+	    The option <c>key_cb</c> is extended to take an optional
+	    list that is passed to the callback module as an option.
+	    With this it is possible to have different keys depending
+	    on which host that is connected. Another possibility is
+	    to write a callback module that fetches keys etc from a
+	    database.</p>
