Heh. They were broken into recently, and someone apparently got sick of
that. I'm still shocked...
You know, I just realized that I was assuming that the machines in
question will require a secure connection from itself to whatever display
it's trying to use. I don't actually know that that is how they were set
up...
Something tells me they weren't. <laugh> If I'd not been assuming that, I
wouldn't have had to ask! :)
Oh well. It's all still useful info.
Considering that I apparently can't ssh *out* from one of the machines,
I'd guess that that's not how they were set up. Although - why the hell
would a machine have sshd set up, and *not* have ssh available? Now I'm
completely baffled.
OK, back to lurkmode.
