SSH Tutorial for Linux
suso.org — Great for starters. This is one of the top tutorials on SSH on the Internet. It was originally written back in 1999 and was completely revised in 2006 to include new and more accurate information.

- diecastbeatdown, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'll digg it, simply because it is a very well done tutorial.
- danielwsmithee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Very well done!
- familyman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'll digg it, simply because I know the author.
- achille, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Whoa, this is old, old old. Don't digg please...
There' much better tutorials out there. Currently it is no longer required for you to create a key on your own, it's done automatically in almost 99% of the systems. They also mention that one way to keep the session alive is by adding “ServerAliveInterval 60” to the ssh config file. That’s old as well, currently all you need is “KeepAlive on” - portis, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1This is SPAM! An advertising message on DIGG, this is just low.
- hashkaran, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Good job, well done.
Sometimes when ssh -X would not work, ssh -Y works.
I prefer to use the ssh -Y for X11 port forwarding.
SOCKS5 option is cool you should try it. It's better than setting up squid. - pimpybra, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is a well written tutorial, but I'm digging it for...
"The RIAA can just suck my big ass" and "Remember, in the words of Benjamin "Uncle Ben" Parker..." - el_taco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@portis
What exactly are they advertising? SSH?? - portis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1el taco,
This post is a like a blog post. Basically, they are hoping to get traffic to sell their products/services. - whiznat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1achille,
Please leave a link to better tutorials. This is the best one I've seen. The stuff on port forwarding is the best explanation I've seen, and I've never seen the keep alive stuff elsewhere. If there is a better tutorial, I would like to know about it.
As far this being a blog post for a company, I never noticed. The info is good, so I'm glad it's up. portis, what should be done? I guess the entire internet could insist companies never put up tutorials and if they do, they must make every reader sign a EULA first so they will know they can't post it to digg, slashdot or anywhere else. Sounds absurd doesn't it? Why, yes, yes it is. - merreborn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0My favorite:
autossh -f my.server.com -R2222:localhost:22 -nN
You can use this to create a reliable, backround pipe to a server behind a firewall.
Then, while on my.server.com, just
ssh localhost -p2222
and viola, you're through the firewall.
Autossh is a seperate tool, although it should be widely available. - dipswitch, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Been using SSH for about 5 years. Never bothered to learn how to create host keys. It works just fine. About a month ago I discovered sshfs, which is truly a terrific piece of software. It saves me a lot of time and hassles. Check it out!
apt-get install sshfs - oDin420, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1without ssh....i would be unemployed. i do everything through ssh tunnels. god bless portforwarding. combined with PuTTY and my firewall config. i am invincible.
definate digg - suso, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1From the Author: Thanks for the compliments and criticism. If you want to read more about SSH, I also gave a tutorial on SSH at the Bloomington Linux Users Group meeting in January:
http://www.bloomingtonlinux.org/wiki/15th_meeting
There is some extra stuff on that tutorial page that was included in the meeting but is not on the suso.org document page. Like a basic overview of how encryption works.
Mark (suso) - kolakutusu, on 07/14/2008, -0/+0I want to test it.
