You need to look at the different authentication mechanisms in ssh. Check out the man page on ssh, that will give you details on different options. The best way I think would be RSA authentication protocol, but I haven't spent the time to set that up yet, so I can't really help much there. I'm almost afraid to say this, you could do it with rhosts authentication, but be very careful. -- Joseph Scott joseph.scott@owp.csus.edu Office Of Water Programs - CSU Sacramento To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
