Don't use .shosts, use key authentication. Although your key includes a host name, ssh doesn't actually care if it's the one you're calling from or not, so you can generate a key on one machine and carry it around to others. Very useful if your home directory is shared between several machines. DES -- Dag-Erling Smørgrav - dag-erli@ifi.uio.no
