Background

Read this KB article on SSH fingerprints to learn how to verify that your connection to SCIAMA is secure.

Exercise

Try to verify that your connection to login4.sciama.icg.port.ac.uk is secure using the SSH fingerprints.

If you have already logged in to that login server (e.g. as part of these exercies), but do not remember its SSH fingerprint presented to you, you can either always look it up by opening the known_hosts file located in the .ssh folder of your home directory on YOUR machine:

cat $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts | grep login4.sciama.icg.port.ac.uk
