Make sure you are in your home directory and create a public/private key pair with ssh-keygen, but before you do that look at the options:.Otherwise contact and explain your problem. So - if you can hit enter at the prompt, you can proceed with the steps below. if you have been given a restricted shell you can not do much - (if you are using Putty and just hit enter, the putty SSH client will terminate without a message, and on OS C from the command line, you are told that commands can no be executed and the connection closes).
(On Windows you can use Putty, on OS X Leopard, just use the included Terminal, and type ssh -l mylogin )
On Mac OS X (Leopard, not tried earlier version), you can use the Terminal (found under Applications > Utilities in the standard Leopard installation), and use the ssh command (as described further on in the text).
