excuse me if this seems off topic but a quick check over at ssh.com
revealed no obvious links to a downloadable version that would not
require a license. Pray tell where I might find the binaries. I would
like to give sshd2 a run and see if it might fix a problem that has been
nagging at me for a bit.
