Wait, so the SSH host key isn't the secret handshake that lets me hack into the mainframe? Darn, there goes my plan for world domination.

C) doesn't make much sense to me. I've never heard of the SSH host key being a 'root key' for signing user keys. Sounds like something out of a Dan Brown novel.

D) is an interesting one, but I don't think that's quite right. The host key is about verifying the server, not the user. Maybe the exam writers were trying to throw us off with that one.

Oh, I thought it was E). I always forget that cron and other system services use SSH keys for automated connections. Guess I need to brush up on my SSH knowledge.

B) seems like the correct answer. The SSH host key is used to verify the identity of the server, ensuring that clients are connecting to the right host.
