Investigation 2: How do you establish an ssh connection.
* You should receive a message similar to the following:
<pre>
The authenticity of host 'podmate.pod7.com fedora3 (216192.109168.132235.13413)' can't be established.
RSA key fingerprint is 53:b4:ad:c8:51:17:99:4b:c9:08:ac:c1:b6:05:71:9b.
Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Warning: Permanently added 'podmate.pod7.comfedora3' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
</pre>
{{Admon/note | Note! | When a user connects to a host using ssh, the host sends a fingerprint or digital signature to the client to establish its identity. The first time a connection is established the identity must be stored for subsequent connections. The fingerprints are stored separately for each user in a file called <code>~/.ssh/known_hosts</code> .}}
