Peter - did you try the latest SSH product from Process Software including the patch link that provides updates?

For the benefit of others, you can run the latest Process SSH pkg while still using the 8-10+ year old native eco 5 OpenVMS stack. The SSH stack can run on either stack (A64 or I64).

"Protects your investment with TCP/IP Services v5.0 or higher and OpenVMS v7.3 or higher on AXP, and OpenVMS v8.2 and higher on Integrity."
