Or better yet get putty. It supports SSH 2 with public key authentication. And
is small enough that you can put a key the client and the scp and sftp (FTP

Config files can not be brought forward across major kernel versions. Use the
config file that came with the image as a starting point or the example config

If you are using kernel-package you have to have root rights to compile it.
Using fakeroot lets you do it without being root kind of like sudo.

You need to remove the directory that you made and install the kernel drivers
first. The Removing all old and conflicting files message is normal let it do
what it wants to. Just install the kernel drivers first and they should work
fine for you.

Make sure that you have the non-us lines in /etc/apt/sources.list uncommented
then run apt-get update and then do apt-get ssh. Also it might be a good idea
to tr another mirror.

There is a version of SSh in non-free also. The client/server created by the

version of SSH from Woody to Potato but that would give you SSH2.
But if by chance you do want to use lame to make MP3s (I think that in addition

The best way to do it is to either add unstable to your sources do a apt-get

and do an apt-get update again. You could also just go to www.debian.org and do
a search on the packages download the right debs and install
