=== Can I test my SSH client before the change? ===
Yes.  We have set up a server that you can use to test how your SSH client software works with the new protocols. 
Connect to it at <code>ssh-test.computecanada.ca</code> using your regular Compute Canada credentials.
If you can connect successfully then your client will be able to connect to our clusters after the SSH changes are made in the summer of 2019.
Its host key fingerprints are given at the bottom of this page.
