Bleh. I type 'svr', and I'm into my web/mail server, and it ain't for uber geeks, I'm as much a newb as anyone. Check it. Run ssh-keygen on box A, copy key to your account (~./ssh) on box B (and C, etc). Now you don't have to enter a password. Edit your /etc/hosts file so box B (and C, etc.) with address 192.168.0.x (or whatever) is called 'foo'. Now all you have to remember is box B's name, not it's IP. But wait, it gets better. Edit your .bashrc like so: alias foo="ssh foo" Done. Now just enter 'foo', and yer in. su root as needed. Joooooooy toooooo the Woooooorld!
