[colug-432] SSH

[Richard Troth]

One thing you might try is to use 'telnet' to hit port 22 and look for the
SSH herald.

This is why I keep 'telnet' around.  The client is handy for that stuff.
Port 22, port 80, port 25.  Sheesh ... how many plain text protocols can we
test with it?  I honestly love plain text protocols.  Wish we had more of
them, then cover with SSL when needed.
