first you need to install the sshd program on the machine you are trying
to connect to (this can be done using yast) and then make sure sshd is
running - '/etc/init.d/sshd start' (as root) then from the machine you
are you need to run 'ssh <ip to connect to> -l <user>' and it will ask
you about keys - just say yes - and then it will ask for <user>'s
password. Put that in and you should be connected. The sshd config
file is at '/etc/ssh/sshd_config', but the default setup should be fine
to connect and at least get started playing around with it. After you
are done, the escape sequence to disconnect is '~.' - just type this on
a new line to disconnect.
