lshis acopyleftimplementation of theSecure Shell(SSH)protocolversion 2, by theGNU Project[3][4][5][6]including bothserverandclientprograms. FeaturingSecure Remote Password protocol(SRP) as specified in secsh-srp[7][8]besides,public-key authentication.Kerberosis somewhat supported as well.[citation needed]Currently however for password verification only, not as asingle sign-on(SSO) method.[citation needed]

lsh was started from scratch and predatesOpenSSH.[9]

Karim Yaghmour concluded in 2003 that lsh was "not fit for use" in productionembedded Linuxsystems, because of its dependencies upon other software packages that have a multiplicity of further dependencies. The lsh package requires the GNU MP library,zlib,and liboop, the latter of which in turn requiresGLib,which then requirespkg-config.Yaghmour further notes that lsh suffers fromcross-compilationproblems that it inherits from glib. "If... your target isn't the same architecture as your host," he states, "LSH isn't a practical choice at this time."[10]

Debianprovides packages of lsh aslsh-server,[11]lsh-utils,lsh-docandlsh-client.[12]
