    Does anyone have a good walk through on how to do SSH?

    I have a mental block on this one. I found several on the web but for some reason they are not clear to me.

    Joel,
    …yeah. I sure did. This time I took the tips and looked at them along side of the Man page. The thing that is hanging me up though is the keys. I am getting lost in the process. If I want to guarantee a secure connection I must first generate my key. Does that mean I need to physically go to the server I am going to connect to and copy my key over to it.

    I ask this because the first time you login to a server it tells you there is no key available. So I think I did something wrong.

    It’s this whole key/token thing that is hanging me up the most.

    The second is the port forwarding thing. I am trying to get my iSight to connect through my firewall as an exercise in doing this. If I forward to say port 8080 do I also need to login to the other machine and map 8080 to the port that iSight is using, i.e. 5190 or similar?

    Joel? Anyone?
