+                Poky ships with two SSH servers you can use in your images: Dropbear and OpenSSH. 
+                Dropbear is a minimal SSH server appropriate for resource-constrained environments,
+                while OpenSSH is a well-known standard SSH server implementation.
+                By default, poky-image-sato is configured to use Dropbear.
+                The poky-image-basic and poky-image-lsb images both include OpenSSH.
+                To change these defaults, edit the <filename>IMAGE_FEATURES</filename> variable
+                so that it sets the image you are working with to include ssh-server-dropbear 
+                or ssh-server-openssh.
