What is Secure Shell?

The Secure Shell (SSH) FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
To quote the README file: Secure Shell (SSH) is a program to log into another computer over a network, to execute commands in a remote machine, and to move files from one machine to another.

Do you allow secure shell (SSH) access?

Part.ir { Persian Design Studio } { Part Web Host } > Hos...
Yes! We understand that many of you require SSH access to be able to perform a number of tasks, or simply prefer to use the shell environment to do things more easily. SSH is a very powerful tool, however, and in the wrong hands it can easily be abused. For this reason we require that for every account on which shell is enabled, you fax or email us an official photographic identification of the person who will be using the account.

What's the difference between VPN and SSL (Secure Socket Layer) or SSH (Secure Shell)?

FAQ's
SSL and SSH provide an end-to-end encrypted connection, whereas the VPN connection is only encrypted between the remote computer and the VPN server. Between the VPN server and the final destination, the traffic is sent in its original form (which may or may not be encrypted, depending on what protocols you are using). You can still use SSL or SSH on top of the VPN connection.

Why does ssh loop with "Secure connection refused'?

The Secure Shell (SSH) FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
SSH1 attempts to fall back to the "r" commands when it cannot connect to an ssh daemon on the remote host. It does this by execing your old rsh to use the old protocol. You probably have installed ssh as rsh, and forgotten to give the --with-rsh=PATH option to configure the second time. When ssh is looking for rsh, it keeps executing itself (or an older version of itself). To solve this, recompile ssh with the correct place for rsh.

How secure is PGP?

The comp.security.pgp FAQ
The big unknown in any encryption scheme based on RSA is whether or not there is an efficient way to factor huge numbers, or if there is some backdoor algorithm that can break the code without solving the factoring problem. Even if no such algorithm exists, it is still believed that RSA is the weakest link in the PGP chain. It would be beyond the goal of this FAQ to discuss all possible attacks against or possible flaws in PGP.

What is Telnet, SSH and shell access?

Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
Telnet is a way of connecting to other computers. Telnet allows you to connect to another computer and then control it in a limited way by giving it commands. The window where you type commands is like a gateway through to the remote computer: your own computer acts like a terminal and plays no part in what happens. Telnet is sometimes called terminal emulation or shell access. SSH (Secure Shell) is a lot safer than telnet.
