I created a user in the SCO box called "web".  I created the same user in
the LINUX
box.  Logged in as "web" in linux and ran command  `ssh web at unix`  I was
prompted
to accept the key and then for a password.

At this point, both LINUX and SCO have the id_rsa file created within the
.ssh
directory for user "web"

I was logged in as "josel" but then `sudo su` to run the steps listed on the
article
I always used "web" as the user when logging into SCO or attempting to run
remote
commands
