You can do other interesting stuff: For example you can have different identity files for different hosts, for example:

Host bar
Hostname bar.server2.com
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa.bar.server2.com

Host foo
Hostname foo.server.com

I have a question though. On some servers, .hushlogin doesn't seem to work. For example, I have a shell account that I use sometimes which displays some ascii art and then goes to a curses dialog that allows me to check some stats on my account (available vhosts and ports). If I put a .hushlogin file in my ~, then the curses dialog is disabled but the /etc/motd is still displayed when I connect. Is there any other way besides .hushlogin to silence ssh login chatter? .hushlogin is going to save me a lot of screen chatter, thanks.
