[YLUG] ssh

[Tom Hayward]

Well, I did do that as per that guide before... I think I had an
error, probably similar to the one I got when I tried it just now.

and the contents of the file /etc/wpa_supplicant/SecureServer.509/ is
3 lines of rather strange looking stuff - mostly non-ascii, but with
the strings "RSA Data Security, Inc.1.0" and "Secure Server
Certification Authority" visible

judging by the error, I'm guessing that that file is at least partially b0rked?
