Version: (using KDE KDE 3.3.1) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages Compiler: Installed from Debian-Unstable binaries. OS: Linux In trying to setup KDE System Guard to monitor another machine on my local network, I have been unable to connect. The instructions in the documentation are very sparse. From documentation: "The easiest way to check this is to type ssh remotehost ksysguardd in a shell. If you are greeted by ksysguardd you can type quit and everything is in order." I am greeted by a password request by ssh, which is not mentioned. Once I give this password, I am greeted by ksysguardd> prompt. I then type quit and am exited. If I then go to the ksysguard app, and attempt to connect to the remote host, The name of the remotehost displays, but with no sensors. After about 5 seconds, I get a message that "Connection to remotehost has been lost" no other errors or explaination, and no troubleshooting information seems to be available in the documentation.
