Description Nikhil Sethi 2007-09-29 04:08:13 UTC

Openssh configuration has a new flag --with-ssl-engine, which "Enable OpenSSL (hardware) ENGINE support". This is useful on machines that have hardware crypto support and have openssl configured to use that support.

Thanks you

Reproducible: Always
