You had problems installing SSH on the machine? Myself, and a few other colleagues, have SSH installed with no problem. We're all running 7.1 or greater. We're also running OpenSSH as well. Not sure if you're running another "version" of SSH, but OpenSSH ran and installed with no problem, and my only complaint about it was that I can't seem to get it installed under SuSE. Check out http://www.openssh.com/ and download the RPMs, and install them. Here are the following packages I have: [root@yoda /root]# rpm -qa | grep opens openssl-0.9.5a-8mdk openssh-askpass-2.3.0p1-7.1mdk openssh-clients-2.3.0p1-7.1mdk openssh-2.3.0p1-7.1mdk openssh-server-2.3.0p1-7.1mdk All of which I downloaded either from OpenSSH or from Mandrake. If you'd like I can upload them to a public FTP site of yours, or another if you can't get ahold of them, but you shouldn't have a problem doing that. At which point I just put them all in the same directory, and ran a rpm -ivh opens* and it installed all of the packages. >From there just create your key, ssh-keygen, and SSH is now installed. What problems did you have when trying to install and set it up? Are you using another "flavor" of SSH? I've noticed there are other versions made by other companies, some even more geared towards Windoze. One a quick side note, the openssl that I have listed above is NOT needed to get SSH up and working, but it's nice for added security in other appz, LICQ being one of them as well as a few other chat programs. Hope that helps, and if it doesn't, then hopefully I didn't waste your time reading this! :0) tdh -- T.
