You will need to set up SSHD, it is a daemon that runs and allow you to
connect to a machine. You then use ssh to
connect to the SSHD daemon. You're so right, the documentation is very
poor for SSH. If it took me a long time to figure it out myself. Once
everything is working type: ssh -l loginName ServerName
Do a search on SSHD and how to configure it, the rest is easy. You just
modify the configuration files to make your SSH more restrictive, don't
use .rhosts it's a bad idea. Someone could get in under 1 minute, password
authentication is good enough.
Good luck.
i'm sorry about my beginner question, but im searching the web now for
couple
of hours, i didnt find out that helps me out, so i came to ask:
i have 2 servers to control, that i need to do from my first server.
so i need only to let accept connection from my one server.
my server should be very pretty secure so ineed (andnow my question):
to connect me only with the command:> ssh myserver2 <- and no other
login -/
passphrases ......
now what i dont understand in all these manuals, what exactly i should
configure
these services..
also what i dont saw / understand was, can i autologin without using
ssh-agent ?
sorry, i'm little bit confused.... thanks4all .... mike
