<heathen> basically, i want to set it up on my desktop <heathen> so i can ssh from my laptop if i need to grab something from it <heathen> when i'm out of town <ClinicalMistake> not hard to set up on your box <ClinicalMistake> but it really matters when it comes down to installing the ssh software of choice on others computers <heathen> both would be my computers <ClinicalMistake> hmm i wonder if you could just load it on to a flash drive <ClinicalMistake> should be okay <heathen> if i knew where my flash drive was... <ClinicalMistake> where you last had it?

<boredandblogging> that and talk it out with a few people and just decide by group <boredandblogging> and over time... <boredandblogging> people will come and go... <silver2> are we talking like a president, vp, secretary, treasurer etc <boredandblogging> everything doesn't need to depend on one person <boredandblogging> silver2: no <silver2> k <silver2> help us out here <boredandblogging> thats too much of a hassle <silver2> more informal?
