Can I use ssh to securely connect two subnets across the Internet?

The Secure Shell (SSH) FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
You can run PPP over a regular ssh connection. See http://www.inka.de/~bigred/sw/ssh-ppp-new.txt for a working solution. It's a good idea to enable compression for this. However, this may cause problems for forwarding TCP connections, because both the TCP connection over which ssh runs and a TCP connection forwarded over the PPP/ssh tunnel may retransmit at the same time. In this case, it is better to use encrypted IP tunneling via UDP. A possible implementation of this is http://www.inka.

Can I use ssh to securely forward UDP-based services, such as NFS or NIS?

The Secure Shell (SSH) FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
There is a general working solution for RPC-based services, such as NIS. You can download it from ftp://ftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/Local/informatik/sec_rpc/ . NIS, in particular, is working. Services which are based purely on UDP, such as DNS, have not been secured with ssh yet, although it is possible in principle.

Can I use ssh to communicate across a firewall?

The Secure Shell (SSH) FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Yes; you can use TCP forwarding for that, by using its secure TCP forwarding features. You can also tunnel through another open port through the firewall (I'm sure all those system admins love me now :-) by running a daemon on the remote side on a port that's allowed through a firewall, like SSL (port 443).

Can I use rdist or rsync with ssh?

The Secure Shell (SSH) FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
If you use rdist, don't forget to compile the path to ssh into it. Alternatively, you may specify the -P option so rdist uses ssh, and not rsh. If you use password authentication with rdist 6.1.2 through 6.1.5, you will need to apply the following patch to rdist to make it work: --- src/rshrcmd.c.orig Tue Jun 11 16:51:21 1996 +++ src/rshrcmd.c Tue Jun 11 16:52:05 1996 @@ -63,7 +63,7 @@ /* child. we use sp[1] to be stdin/stdout, and close sp[0].

How do I use ssh?

FAQ
Xtools doesn't automatically detect where your ssh files are and add them to your UNIX path. In order to use ssh, you either need to type in the full path to the ssh commands (for instance: /usr/loal/bin/ssh) or add the path to your PATH variable. Yes, the directions in the manual are meant to serve as an example. They walk you through setting up RSA keys for SSH1. The steps for setting up RSA keys for SSH2 is exactly the same, it just uses different commands.

Networking FAQ
ssh (Secure SHell) is a method of securely connecting to a remote computer. It is the secure equivalent of telnet or rsh (remote shell). It is the preferred method of connecting to CAE Unix machines. From the Start Menu in the lower left of the screen, choose CAE Applications, Internet, Secure CRT 3.3. A box will open asking you to choose a Sun computer to connect to. You can choose any number from 1-60. Then you will be asked to type your Unix password in.

Nyx Net FAQ
Yes! ssh (secure shell) is available on Nyx1, Nyx2 and Nyx3 for all validated users. Nyx and nyx10 cannot currently withstand the load of users using ssh. So ssh is restricted to administrators. Yes, this means Nyx is awfully busy (if it takes more than a minute to search through a 200k file, that's a slooooow system). Think of it as a built in limit to how busy Nyx gets -- it refuses to let other people on to make it even busier.

Why does it take so long to connect to my computer via ssh or telnet?

Frequently Asked Questions for FreeBSD 2.X, 3.X and 4.X
The symptom: there is a long delay between the time the TCP connection is established and the time when the client software asks for a password (or, in telnet(1)'s case, when a login prompt appears). The problem: more likely than not, the delay is caused by the server software trying to resolve the client's IP address into a hostname.

Can I use ssh to protect services like ftp or POP?

The Secure Shell (SSH) FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
If you want to avoid sending ftp passwords in cleartext over the net, you can use ssh to encrypt your command channel. This will still leave your data channel open to all attacks on TCP, and will not work through a firewall. You can either use ftpsshd by Per-Erik Martin at http://www.docs.uu.se/~pem/hacks/ for SSH1, or you can do this by hand. Suppose you are on a host called myhost and want to initiate a ftp connection to ftphost. On myhost, you do myhost$ ssh -g -L 1234:ftphost.example.
