[lug] SSH

[John Dollison]

I've never used SSH before, but I just finished installing it and reading as
much of the help as I could digest.

I see that various methods of authentication and encryption are supported,
but I'm a bit confused - if I'm a first-time user and want to connect to a
web host to upload some files to my new website, is SSH automatically
secure, or do I first need to configure it (like generating public/private
key pairs)?
