[etc] Using SSH command

(probably this is old. I will need to update this information)
More information on SSH at site

http://www.suso.org/linux/tutorials/ssh.phtml

in brief use commands in the following seq.
(Assumed the ssh has been set up already)

1. ssh-keygen
This will ask for a phrase and genrate a key of the form
1024 35
1549149626843484365029847659056740831818040065927175098007593305550532268388

03671
csptest@quark.evl.uic.edu

this will be saved in .ssh/identity.pub


2. ssh in to the remote machine u want.

ssh -l <user_id> machine.name

The first time it will ask some authentication passwd

once u get in go to
.ssh
and create a file called authorized_keys
paste the abobe key in this file

use the commnds
chmod 700 .
chmod 600 *
to change permissions

exit from this machine
the next time u can directly log in..

SCP can be used as fllowa


scp myfile alpha.evl.uic.edu:dir_name
