Hi:

I've set up ssh (and scp) and got it working through the firewall so I
can access my server when I'm away from home.  But I'm not sure if it is
using the GPG keys or if it is just giving me an encrypted tunnel
protect my password.  I realize that everything is encrypted, but I'm
hoping that using the GPG keys will make it that much more secure.
Paranoid maybe, but the keys are there so I'd like to use them.

The server is running Hoary with no X at all.

Ed
