Press Enter to accept the default location and filename ( ~/.ssh/id_rsa ). Then you will be prompted to create a passphrase for unlocking the private key. The corresponding public key will be stored in the same place and same name with “ .pub ” appended. Here's what the key generation looks like:

Introduction

History of Dos Networking

  • This first chapter provides information about the history of networking DOS computers. You don't need to read it, if you just want to install a few drivers and applications. But it may help to avoid confusion. Read more about the history of TCP/IP networking on DOS computers in Steven Baker's article "Net Worth - Desktop TCP/IP At Middle Age".

Dos Networking Today

  • In this chapter we will learn more about the network drivers, protocols and applications that can be used with a DOS PC in the 21st century. This is just an overview. For more information try Eugene Blanchard's "Introduction to Data Communications" (GNU GPL, a more recent but non free version can be found here).
