Subject: Now that PuTTY is actually using names "@putty.projects.tartarus.org", it
X-Git-Url: https://git.distorted.org.uk/~mdw/sgt/putty/commitdiff_plain/0dbf44654a055731a4585543626a3f9d6758fa0d

Now that PuTTY is actually using names "@putty.projects.tartarus.org", it
seems like a good idea to document them.

+\A{sshnames} SSH-2 names specified for PuTTY
+
+There are various parts of the SSH-2 protocol where things are specified
+using a textual name.  Names ending in \cw{@putty.projects.tartarus.org}
+are reserved for allocation by the PuTTY team.  Allocated names are
+documented here.
+
+\H{sshnames-global} Connection protocol global request name
+
+This name can be sent in a \cw{SSH_MSG_GLOBAL_REQUEST} message.
+
+\dt \cw{simple@putty.projects.tartarus.org}
+
+\dd This is sent by a client to announce that it will not have more that
+one channel open at a time in the current connection.  The intention
+is that the server, knowing this, can set the window on that one
+channel to something very large, and leave flow control to TCP.  The
+format of the request is:
+
+\lcont{
+
+\c byte      SSH_MSG_GLOBAL_REQUEST
+\c uint32    recipient channel
+\c string    "simple@putty.projects.tartarus.org"
+\c boolean   want reply
+
+}
+
+\H{sshnames-channel} Connection protocol channel request name
+
+This name can be sent in a \cw{SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_REQUEST} message.
+
+\dt \cw{winadj@putty.project.tartarus.org}
+
+\dd PuTTY sends this request along with some
+\cw{SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_WINDOW_ADJUST} messages as part of its window-size
+tuning.  It can be sent on any type of channel.  Servers MUST treat it
+as an unrecognised request and respond with
+\cw{SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_FAILURE}.
+
+\H{sshnames-kex} Key exchange method names
