As Erik said, there is a substantial effort here, probably more than we could expect of a student during a summer. However, I can now say that the effort has been made, and something more of an announcement will be forthcoming. It'll probably be at least a few days, but a native SSHv2 implementation does exist. > I use to find sshnet extremely > viable in a mixed network where now I'm just using sshv2 to > tunnel in overly complicated startup scripts. There's not a direct replacement for sshnet per se in this implementation, but here ssh becomes a protocol sitting in /net. So it should be pretty easy to tunnel just about anything, and I suspect that the changes needed to sshnet would be relatively minor and would cut out all the SSH protocol bits. BLS
