Verifying SSH connectivity in a script
Hi everyone,

I'm trying to write a korne shell script that takes the IP address of a remote server as an argument and logs into that server if RSA key has been setup properly, otherwise exits if RSA key is not set for that server.

How do I do that?

Thanks,
omd
