I figure this isn't me. This is one of those occasions where the ports
system makes things too damn easy :-)
When I got my freefall account, I mailed (Jordan I think) my prefered
password, crypted and ready to drop into /etc/passwd.
Then I
cd /usr/ports/security/ssh
make install
Ever since then I've used ssh to get to freefall (and wcarchive). Each
time I get prompted for the password I set up earlier.
Is this about to change then? Or am I missing something fundamental?

PS: Of course, that 'something fundamental' is probably a good dose of RTFM.
