Every time I try to connect via ssh, I enter my password and after a few seconds I get the msg connection closed.

I am trying to connect thusly:

ssh mjmacarty@ssh.pythonanywhere.com

Here is the response:

mjmacarty@ssh.pythonanywhere.com's password: 
Connection to ssh.pythonanywhere.com closed.

Am I just not allowed to do this with a free account? Thanks for any assistance

That's right, SSH is for paying users only. Where did you find out about the SSH feature? We try to make it clear in all the docs that it only works on paid accounts...

Oh well, I guess I will have to stop being cheap and move along the freemium model. I clicked on a link in one of the green boxes. I think it was SSH help.
