Put you keys on your iPod, phone, USB thumb drive, or whatever! :-) Of course, you'll have to encode the files in some way in case you lose your device. Richard, use SSL.

Instead of a password, you need a public/private key combo to gain access via SSH. http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=public+key+login+ssh&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8 should give you enough to read. Best, Jan -- Hello Richard,
