Thanks for the tip and getting me back on track.
I have gotten SSH and rsync working with MuLinux, so I am very happy :-)
I set up another machine with Red Hat 4.2, and compiled SSH 1.2.26, and
grabbed the ssh-keygen program and brought it over to Mulinux. And then
generated the keys.
I also learned about `hostname mulinux.domain.com`, so that I could give it
a proper name, because SSH likes to verify names and reverse ip addresses.
Although one of the SSH settings might turn that off.
I did run into a small problem using mk2efs, in that it could not find the
badblocks program, so I also imported that from RH 4.2
I am planning on spending some more time today seeing what else I can make
this distribution do.
Thanks a million.
