Fix typo in keyboard-interactive string. Thanks to Daniel Goertzen
Own Id: OTP-10456
ssh_connectino:send/3 will not return until all data has been sent. Previously it could return too early, resulting in things such premature close of the connection. Also improved error handling of closed SSH channels.

Ssh now only sends one channel close message under all circumstances, before it would sometimes incorrectly send two.
Own Id: OTP-10060
The options check mistreated the ip_v6_disable-option, and did not handle some, at the moment, undocumented options correctly.

Fix lib/src/test/ssh_basic_SUITE.erl to fix IPv6 option typos
Fixed incorrect option "ipv6_disable" to "ipv6_disabled" as documented in the ssh manual.
Own Id: OTP-10219
SSH: Make "auth_methods" server option re-usable
The 'auth_methods' option is used by the server side of the SSH code to tell a connecting SSH client about the authentication methods that are supported by the server. The code still extracts and handles the 'auth_methods' option from Opts in appropriate places, but the Opts checking code in ssh.erl didn't allow that option to be specified.

Use the correct channel id when adjusting the channel window
Own Id: OTP-10232
All keys in authorized_keys are considerd, wrongly only the first one was before.

Own Id: OTP-9948
Document supported algorithms
Own Id: OTP-8109
Graceful handling of premature close from an sftp client.
Own Id: OTP-9391 Aux Id: seq11838
Changed ssh implementation to use the public_key application for all public key handling. This is also a first step for enabling a callback API for supplying public keys and handling keys protected with password phrases.
Additionally the test suites where improved so that they do not copy the users keys to test server directories as this is a security liability. Also ipv6 and file access issues found in the process has been fixed.
This change also solves OTP-7677 and OTP-7235
This changes also involves some updates to public_keys ssh-functions.
Own Id: OTP-9911
Added options for the ssh client to support user keys files that are password protected.

Ssh behaviours now use the new directive "-callback". Parameters will be further specified in a later version of ssh.

Calling ssh_sftp:stop_channel/1 resulted in that the trap_exit flag was set to true for the invoking process.
Own Id: OTP-9386 Aux Id: seq11865
An unexpected message would crash the ssh_connection_handler and close the connection. Now an error message is generated instead.
Own Id: OTP-9273
A memory leak has been fixed. I.e. per terminated connection the size of a pid and the length of a user name string was not cleared.
Own Id: OTP-9232
Strengthened random number generation. (Thanks to Geoff Cant)
Own Id: OTP-9225
In some cases SSH returned {error, normal} when a channel was terminated unexpectedly. This has now been changed to {error, channel_closed}.

Own Id: OTP-8918
The ssh_system_sup did not catch noproc and shutdown messages.

In some cases the message {ssh_cm, ssh_connection_ref(), {closed, ssh_channel_id()}} was not passed to the registered callback module.

The erlang ssh server has presented itself incorrectly, using the special version ssh-1.99, although it never has supported versions below 2.0. Since ssh-1.1 client versions below 2.0 are correctly rejected instead of letting the server crash later on. Alas the problem with the presentation string was not discovered until after ssh.1.1 was released. Now the server will present itself as ssh-2.0.
Own Id: OTP-7795
An internal function call used an incorrect parameter, which caused problem when the old listen API was used. This was introduced in Ssh-1.1.
Own Id: OTP-7920 Aux Id: seq11211
Ssh timeouts will now behave as expected i.e. defaults to infinity only the user of the ssh application can know of a reasonable timeout value for their application.
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***

The implementation of timeouts added as a patch in ssh-1.0.1 was slightly changed and is now documented.
Own Id: OTP-7808
To honor the multiplexing of channels over one ssh connection concept ssh_sftp:connect/ [1,2,3] is deprecated and replaced by ssh_sftp:start_channel/[1,2,3] and ssh_sftp:stop/1 is deprecated and replaced by ssh_sftp:stop_channel/1 and to stop the ssh connection ssh:close/ 1 should be called.
Own Id: OTP-7809
Added the message {ssh_channel_up, ChannelId, ConnectionManager} that shall be handled by the channel callback handle_msg/2. This makes the function handle_msg/2 a mandatory function for ssh channels implementations which it was not in ssh-1.1.
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
Own Id: OTP-7828
A flaw in the implementation of the supervision tree caused the ssh daemon to close the connections to all currently logged in users if one user logged out. Another problem related to the supervision tree caused the closing down of clients to leak processes i.e. all processes was not shutdown correctly.
Own Id: OTP-7676
Tabs could cause ssh_cli to print things in a surprising way.
Own Id: OTP-7683 Aux Id: seq11102
[sftp, sftpd] - Added patch to make sftp timestamps more correct, in the long run it would be nice to have better support in file to be able to make it always behave correctly now it will be correct 99 % of time instead of almost never correct, at least on unix-based platforms.
Own Id: OTP-7685 Aux Id: seq11082
[sftpd] - Added patch to further improve handling of symbolic links in the sftp-server.
Own Id: OTP-7766 Aux Id: seq11101
Ssh incorrectly sent the local id instead of the remote id of a channel to the peer. For simpler cases these ids often happen to have the same value. One case when they do not is when the client sends an exec command two times in a raw on the same ssh connection (different channels of course as the channel will be closed when the exec command has been evaluated) .
Own Id: OTP-7767
Packet data could be lost under high load due to the fact that buffered data was sometimes wrongly discarded before it had been sent.
Own Id: OTP-7768
Improved ipv6-handling as some assumptions about inet functions where incorrect.
Own Id: OTP-7770
Added new API function ssh:connection_info/2.
Own Id: OTP-7456
Now starts ssh channel processes later avoiding synchronization problems between processes.
Own Id: OTP-7516
Ssh now rejects old versions of the ssh protocol for security reasons. (Even if they where not correctly rejected before the connection would probably have failed anyway due to other reasons.)
Own Id: OTP-7645 Aux Id: seq11094
New API module ssh_channel has been added. This is a behaviour to facilitate the implementation of ssh clients and plug in subsystems to the ssh daemon. Note that this slightly changes the options to the API function ssh:daemon/[1,2,3] deprecating all no longer documented options. Note that the new API enforces the "logical way" of using the old API i.e. making the subsystem process part of the ssh applications supervisor tree, so missuses of the old API are not compatible with the new API.
