run. If it does not, skip this step. When prompted you can enter a passphrase
and comment that will be displayed each time you log in. Use RSA key length
of 1024 bits.
Create a new connection

RSA
Authentification: In your SSH Manager in your account control panel
input your RSA key that was generated by the RSA Key Generation Wizard
in the specified text box. This should be in a file called something like
identity.pub in the same directory as you installed F-Secure or other location
you specified. Open this file in a text editor and copy and paste the contents
into your control panel. Be sure not to change anything when you copy the
key, if anything is changed, your key will not work. Proceed to step
9.
Password
Authentification: Select the option to use Password as the authentification
type. In your SSH Manager in your account control panel you can leave the
text area on the SSH manager where you are prompted for the RSA key blank.
Proceed to step 9.

on "Submit" in your SSH Manager.
On the following screen
in your SSH Manager, input your access addresses. These will be the domain(s)
of your ISP, i.e. *.earthlink.net, *.mindspring.com or your static IP address
(DSL). Submit these changes.
Wait about 10 minutes
for the changes to take affect and then you may log in using the profile
you created in F-Secure SSH above to your account. If you chose to use
RSA Authentification you will prompted to enter the passphrase you selected
during the RSA key generation process. If you chose to use Password Authentification,
