Just wondering, regarding OpenSSH.

[Glenn Sieb]

Are there any plans for updating the openssh port to something newer 
than 3.6.1? The site shows they're up to 4.1 now.

These lousy dictionary attacks keep happening, and could easily be 
quashed to a degree if the openssh we had would support the MaxAuthTries 
feature in sshd_config.

I'm just curious if I should wait for this, or if I should just go ahead 
and update my openssh to something newer? (I'm on FreeBSD 4.11)

Best,
