Wait, are you sure? I thought there was another file for that.

No way, it's /etc/ssh/client, right?

I remember discussing the difference between ssh_config and sshd_config in class, and I think we edit ssh_config for outbound connections.

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like /etc/ssh/sshd_config is more for server-side configurations, not outbound sessions.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I believe the correct answer is /etc/ssh/ssh_config for client settings.

I think it's the ssh_config file, but I can't remember if it's the one for the client or the server.

Okay, I've got this. The file to edit is /etc/ssh/ssh_config. That's where you set the default options for outbound SSH sessions from the client.

I'm a little confused. Isn't the server-side config file /etc/ssh/sshd_config? I'll have to double-check my notes to be sure.

Ah, I remember learning about this in class. The file to edit is /etc/ssh/ssh_config. That's where you configure the client-side SSH options.

I'm a bit unsure on this one. Is it /etc/ssh/sshd_config or /etc/ssh/ssh_config? I'll have to think it through carefully.

Hmm, this seems straightforward. I'm pretty sure the default options for outbound SSH sessions would be in the /etc/ssh/ssh_config file.

I'm pretty confident that CHAR is the right choice here. The question specifies that the account numbers are a fixed length, so CHAR will ensure that the full value is stored correctly. I don't think we need to get too fancy with this one - CHAR seems like the straightforward and appropriate data type.

Wait, is it /etc/ssh/ssh_config or /etc/ssh/client? I can never remember which one is the client-side config. Better flip a coin on this one!
