jaramiko: ssh2 protocol for java

jaramiko
SSH2 protocol for java

last updated 12-Nov-2007

jaramiko is a port of paramiko for java: a pure-java implementation of the SSH version 2 protocol, released under the MIT license. it uses only features from java 1.3 (for example, InputStream instead of ReadableByteChannel) to make it more likely to work on embedded JVMs.

so far, it can do client and server mode SSH2, all the standard ciphers (AES, Blowfish, 3DES), compression, and all the shell, command, and subsytem channels. it can't do SFTP yet, though that's in progress.
