Check to see where the ssh command is in your path.
Is your ssh installed as an rpm or a bff?
See if it is installed as an rpm:
rpm -qa | grep ssh
If it is, it can be removed with:
rpm -e ssh.package.name
and installed with rpm -ivh new.ssh.package.name
See if it is installed as a bff.
lslpp -L | grep -i ssh
If it is, use smitty install and go into "softare mainenance and utilities"
--> "Remove isnatlled software" and remove it.
Then cd into the directory of the new package and use smitty install
"Install and Update Software and choose . (a dot)
as the installation directory, choose the new package and your on your way.
Once it is installed, make sure that ssh is in the same place in your path
(you may need to create a link) just to make sure
that it won't break any applications that may be looking for it at that
location.
It is possible that you may also need to update your ssl (or open ssl) too.
Hope this helps

I'm running SSH Secure Shell 3.2.9.1 on AIX 5.3,

How hard is it to switch to openssh? Will it break
certificate
authentication that is already in place?
I am not sure as I've never used the rpms provided by
IBM :) but before attempting to update, find out which
configuration file sshd is using along with the host
public and private keys...
rpm -q --all | grep ssh ; will give you the sshd rpm
fileset.
rpm -q --list <rpm_package> ; will give you the list
of files associated with it, look for sshd_config and
the id_rsa[.pub] or id_dsa[.pub] files.
chances are that they are in /etc/ssh but not sure,
backup the directory, update , then make sure the
files in the directory are the same, just be a little
careful when replacing sshd_config , not worry, it
will still work as many of the key words and the
format have stayed the same but there have been
several changes in name, additions and removals.
regards,
Enrique.
