# ssh There are two documents you need to read, in order: * [Gitolite and ssh][glssh] explains how gitolite uses openssh features to create any number of virtual users over just one actual (unix) user, and distinguish between them by their public keys. * [Ssh troubleshooting][sts] is a rather long document that, as far as I know, covers almost every known ssh related issue. If you find something missing, send me an email with details so I can update it.
