Hello all,
Where can I find the latest openssh version for CentOS6?
Here is what we currently have installed:
openssh-5.3p1-122.el6.x86_64
Thanks!
latest openssh version from yum
Re: latest openssh version from yum
That is the latest. https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/backporting/
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Thanks!
Is there a way to search what's backported? or should I assume that everything is backported if yum update doesn't have any updates?

Not quite. "Everything" is too vague.ekatz wrote:should I assume that everything is backported if yum update doesn't have any updates?
If you do have the latest published package, then you have the latest published package.
What is in the package is what Red Hat has deemed necessary to put into it. What they choose to backport, they do. The focus is on security. That is hardly "everything".

Thanks guys!
I'll try to clarify my question... in this case of openssh there were no updates since Dec 2016, that's why I asked if it's the latest... So i was trying to check if there is a way to check if im running the latest besides running yum update or rpm -qa
Thanks again for your helpful answers.

If you have openssh-5.3p1-122.el6.x86_64 then it was built in March, not last December, as you can verify by running
Code: Select all
rpm -qi openssh
