SSH
An encryption protocol that sits atop Telnet, not to be confused with SSL which sits atop HTTP. Normally you generate a public/private key pair, and the host adds your public key to its rhosts file to allow you access. SSH1 supports RSA keys and SSH2 supports both RSA and DSA. Your key may have a an optional passphrase that you need to key each time you use it. You create the keys with a separate utility called something like ssh-keygen.
