So very, very true. In fact, this has at times fooled me into rebooting the wrong machine. My error , orf course, in not paying attention to the hostname which is part of my prompt. But, it has in fact happened that I've rebooted a machine half way around the planet when I meant to reboot the laptop I was typing on. So, when you get your ssh act together, it may be wise to make sure your prompt is showing your hostname. In fact, I'm thinking of rewriting my /sbin/reboot to prompt for hostname, and refuse the action if no match. Janina
