SSH version RHL 7.7

Solution 1:

On a sample RHEL 7.7 host I checked, ssh -V and sshd -V both return the same version, OpenSSH_7.4p1, OpenSSL 1.0.2k-fips 26 Jan 2017.

If when you run ssh -V on the target server you get differing results then I would say either you have additional SSH binaries in your path (which ssh will show you where they are) or someone has replaced the original client binaries, (rpm -V openssh-clients will show you if the files don't tally with what the RPM database thinks they should be).

Otherwise I would ask for clarification as to how the version of SSH has been ascertained.
