Has anyone managed a passwd and shadow list with more the 10,000 people

passwd.domainname1, shadow.domainname1, passwd.domainname2, and
shadow.domainname2?

When you run a ssh client, the key should be saved the first time in
some file that it will now use each time it connects.
If you compiled ssh by default, it'll use the /usr/local subdirectories.
When you run ssh-keygen, you need to make sure you're placing the key
