- Only for SLE15, restore the patch file removed in Thu Feb 18 13:54:44 UTC 2021 to restore the previous behaviour from SP5 of having root password login allowed by default (fixes bsc#1223486, related to bsc#1173067): * openssh-7.7p1-allow_root_password_login.patch - Since the default value for this config option is now set to permit root to use password logins in SLE15, the openssh-server-config-rootlogin subpackage isn't useful there so we now create an openssh-server-config-disallow-rootlogin subpackage that sets the configuration the other way around than openssh-server-config-rootlogin.

There are following changes in default settings of ssh client and server: * Accepting and sending of locale environment variables in protocol 2 is enabled. * PAM authentication is enabled and mostly even required, do not turn it off. * In SLE15, root authentiation with password is enabled by default (PermitRootLogin yes). NOTE: this has security implications and is only done in order to not change behaviour of the server in an update. We strongly suggest setting this option either "prohibit-password" or even better to "no" (which disables direct remote root login entirely). * DSA authentication is enabled by default for maximum compatibility. NOTE: do not use DSA authentication since it is being phased out for a reason - the size of DSA keys is limited by the standard to 1024 bits which cannot be considered safe any more. * Accepting all RFC4419 specified DH group parameters. See KexDHMin in ssh_config and sshd_config manual pages. For more information on differences in SUSE OpenSSH package see README.FIPS
