Contact **bddebian** or **tschwinge** in [[HurdIRC]] for details or to request an account.

To be able to use just `ssh [machine]`, you should append your public SSH key to _~/.ssh/authorized\_keys_ on the remote machine.

And if you don't want to worry about the machines's IP addresses changing (due to the dial-up connection) or the host keys changing every now and then (when the machines are re-installed), put something like the following into _~/.ssh/config_ of the machine you connect from:

    Host clubber.bddebian.com clubber
      HostName clubber.bddebian.com
      Port 2251

    Host flubber.bddebian.com flubber
      HostName flubber.bddebian.com
      Port 2250

    Host gnubber.bddebian.com gnubber
      HostName gnubber.bddebian.com
      Port 2254

    Host *.bddebian.com clubber flubber gnubber
      CheckHostIP no
      UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null
      StrictHostKeyChecking no
      User [username]
