+To enable this port, please add sshd_program=/usr/local/sbin/sshd and make
+sure sshd_enable is set to YES in your /etc/rc.conf
+
+You may also want to put NO_OPENSSH= true in your /etc/make.conf
+and make sure your path is setup to /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin so that
+you are running the port version of openssh and not the version that comes
+with FreeBSD
+
+'PermitRootLogin no' is the new default for the OpenSSH port.
+This now matches the PermitRootLogin configuration of OpenSSH in
+the base system. Please be aware of this when upgrading your
+OpenSSH port, and if truly necessary, re-enable remote root login
+by readjusting this option in your sshd_config.
+
+Users are encouraged to create single-purpose users with ssh keys
+and very narrowly defined sudo privileges instead of using root
+for automated tasks.
