[olug] SSH question - username encrypted?

[Trent Melcher]

>From what I can remember, the session gets encrypted even before a username
or password are sent.  Don't know where I found this at.

Hey OLUGers:

When you establish a secure connection with ssh, scp, or whatever, is the
username parameter that gets sent with the command encrypted?  Seems like
it would *not* be, but I haven't been able to find information that says
explicitly whether it is or isn't.
