SSH is similar to Telnet and RLOGIN and runs directly above TCP, using TCP port 22. Here's what the FAQ on SSH says: Ssh (Secure Shell) is a program to log into another computer over a network, to execute commands in a remote machine, and to move files from one machine to another. It provides strong authentication and secure communications over insecure channels. It is intended as a replacement for rlogin, rsh, and rcp. Here's what Webopaedia says about SSL: Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is a protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL works by using a public key to encrypt data that's transferred over the SSL connection. Both Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer support SSL, and many Web sites use the protocol to obtain confidential user information, such as credit card numbers. By convention, URLs that require an SSL connection start with https: instead of http:. _______________________________ Priscilla Oppenheimer www.troubleshootingnetworks.com www.priscilla.com > > Thank's in advance, > BF > > Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=53884&t=53869 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
