2.2.2. Login Remotely

The console isn’t a very friendly place to work from, so we will now switch to accessing the machine remotely via SSH where we can use copy and paste, etc.
From another host, check whether we can see the new host at all:
beekhof@f16 ~ # ping -c 1 192.168.122.101
PING 192.168.122.101 (192.168.122.101) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.122.101: icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=1.01 ms

Next, login as root via SSH.
beekhof@f16 ~ # ssh -l root 192.168.122.101
