Thank you.
Can you give a specific example of
ssh yourserver
What would be the "yourserver"?
1) You could use the IP address of the machine you are trying to connect to,
eg
ssh 192.168.1.4
2) Or if you have the name of the machine in your /etc/hosts
you could use that, eg
ssh joe
3) Or you could give the complete name of the machine, eg
ssh maths.tcd.ie
(Nb This won't work because you don't have an account on this machine,
and even if you did you would have had to somehow get your public key,
generated with "ssh-keygen", into your .ssh directory on this machine.
In other words, you need the blessing of the person
running the remote machine.)

Note.
I was wrong in saying that "ssh yourname@yourserver" would not work.
