| 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
| 


Answer my first question, please.
