Chris has already indicated that it won't work unless you have a version 1
client ssh program.  Our server is version 1.

Assuming this is resolved, if you ran the update.pl script, you should be
set to try the midnight job.  I'm attaching the binary "mnj" key file to
this message; please put it in the ~/.ssh/ directory of the account that
will run the midnight job.  Then you should "prime" the key with:

     cd
     ssh -D
     ssh -C -a -x -i .ssh/mnj -l aipsmgr mnj.cv.nrao.edu /AIPS/AIPS.MSG

If this asks you to add mnj.cv to the list of known hosts, enter yes.
Thereafter you should see a copy of our AIPS message of the day.  You have
now "primed" the key and are ready to try the midnight job.  The MAKE.MNJ
script that is called from update.pl will have given you instructions on
how to do this.  If not, run the $TST/SYSTEM/UNIX/UPDATE/MAKE.MNJ script
after createing $TST/$ARCH/UPDATE and doing a cd to it.

PS. make sure you make the "mnj" key protected ("chmod 0600 ~/.ssh/mnj").
