Are you getting issues when using the ssh command on your #Linux, #FreeBSD, #macOS or #Unix like OS? Try passing the `-v` option to the ssh to increase the verbosity of the output during the connection process. This provides more detailed information about what's happening behind the scenes, which can be very helpful for troubleshooting connection issues like Authentication failures, missing/mismatched SSH keys, Network issues, firewall issues, and more.
