[Netkit.users] SSH with public key authentication

[Adrian van Dongen]

Did you put the keys on global file system or on the temporary file system ?
Same goes for the changes to the ssh configuration. If you start a new
instance your configuration settings will be gone if you don't change them
on the global file system, use prepared .disk or if you defined a separate
configuration file in the instance directory.

Regards,

Adrian.
