Summary:                    Etc Config Files When Installing OpenSSH in Solaris
Zone or NFS environment
Description: 
This might be on  your internal to-do list, but currently when you install
OpenCSW version of OpenSSH, in a global zone and you either want to share
that installed version of OpenSSH via NFS and/or inherited zone
environment, the etc-config files for OpenSSH cannot be easily abstracted
for a particular NFS-share-client or zone. 

Since the etc-config files are located in /opt/csw/etc/ssh, when you
zone-inherit or NFS-share the /opt/csw directory, as currently compiled,
OpenSSH is only going to look at /opt/csw/etc/ssh.  

Ideally OpenSSH could be compiled to look at /etc/opt/csw/ssh  and then
/opt/csw/etc/ssh.  This way every machine/zone can have their own config,
but if you want to live the old method and share keys amongst machines, it
would work.  I got these directories based on information in:
