libssh2_session_banner_get - get the remote banner

#include <libssh2.h>
const char *
libssh2_session_banner_get(oLIBSSH2_SESSION *session);

Once the session has been setup and libssh2_session_handshake(3) has completed successfully, this function can be used to get the server id from the banner each server presents.

A pointer to a string or NULL if something failed. The data pointed to will be allocated and associated to the session handle and will be freed by libssh2 when libssh2_session_free(3) is used.

Added in 1.4.0
