 +====== Setting up SSH ======
 +
 +
 +On the local workstation:
 +  * Open up Terminal.app
 +  * cd .ssh
 +  * ssh-keygen -t rsa1  (creates an RSA1 key pair for SSH protocol version 1 communication)
 +    * Choose default location, and leave the passphrase empty.
 +  * ssh-keygen -t dsa  (creates a DSA key pair for SSH protocol version 2 communication)
 +    * Choose default location, and leave the passphrase empty.
 +  * ssh-keygen -t rsa (creates an RSA key pair for SSH protocol version 2 communication)
 +
 +  * Copy identity.pub, id_dsa.pub and id_rsa.pub to the remote SSH server.  
 +
 +On the remote server:
 +
 +  * cat identity.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys (appends the line in the file to the end of authorized_keys, for SSH protocol version 1 communication)
 +  * cat id_dsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2  (appends the line in the file to the end of authorized_keys2, for SSH protocol version 2 communication)
 +  * cat id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2
 +
 +  * Make sure your .ssh directory is NOT group/world readable.  (chmod -R 0600 ~/.ssh will take care of this)
 +  * SSH to the remote server after creating and moving your SSH keys into place. You will be prompted to accept the remote server's host key.
