 Dropbear for Debian
 -------------------
 
-This package will attempt to listen on port 22. If the OpenSSH 
-package ("ssh") is installed, the file /etc/default/dropbear 
-will be set up so that the server does not start by default.
-
-You can run Dropbear concurrently with OpenSSH 'sshd' by 
-modifying /etc/default/dropbear so that "NO_START" is set to 
-"0" and changing the port number that Dropbear runs on. Follow 
-the instructions in the file.
-
-This package suggests you install the "ssh" package. This package 
-provides the "ssh" client program, as well as the "/usr/bin/scp" 
-binary you will need to be able to retrieve files from a server 
-running Dropbear via SCP.

-Replacing OpenSSH "sshd" with Dropbear
---------------------------------------
+This package will attempt to setup the Dropbear ssh server to listen on
+port 22.  If the OpenSSH server package ("openssh-server") is installed,
+the file /etc/default/dropbear will be set up so that the server does not
+start by default.
 
-You will still want to have the "ssh" package installed, as it 
-provides the "ssh" and "scp" binaries. When you install this 
-package, it checks for existing OpenSSH host keys and if found, 
-converts them to the Dropbear format.
-
-If this appears to have worked, you should be able to change over 
-by following these steps:
+You can run Dropbear concurrently with OpenSSH 'sshd' by modifying
+/etc/default/dropbear so that "NO_START" is set to "0", and changing the
+port number that Dropbear runs on.  Follow the instructions in the file.
 
-1. Stop the OpenSSH server
-   % /etc/init.d/ssh stop
-2. Prevent the OpenSSH server from starting in the future
-   % touch /etc/ssh/sshd_not_to_be_run
-3. Modify the Dropbear defaults file, set NO_START to 0 and 
-   ensure DROPBEAR_PORT is set to 22.
-   % editor /etc/default/dropbear
-4. Restart the Dropbear server.
-   % /etc/init.d/dropbear restart
+This package suggests you install the "openssh-client" package, which
+provides the "ssh" client program, as well as the "/usr/bin/scp" binary
+you will need to be able to retrieve files via SCP from a server running
+Dropbear.
