Install the openssh-client package sudo apt-get install openssh-client I hope I have the right name for that package. It will allow secure access to other machines that have ssh enabled. The openssh-server package will give you a running ssh server on your Ubuntu machine if you need to access it from another computer. Hope this helps. ~Kyle http://kyle.tk/ -- "Kyle? ...
