Actually I didn't install the unstable ssh package, I installed the unstable ssh2 package. It didn't complain about and load any other packages that I could tell, although maybe I missed it in my inexperience. It connects OK to the SSH2 machine I needed to connect to, both ssh and sftp, so I got my immediate gratification. I'd sure like to figure out how to configure it to do both SSH2 and downgrade to SSH1 automatically and I'd be set. When I do a ssh -V: ssh: SSH Version 2.0.13 Don't know if that is openSSH, but I think so. brew
