-Configuration keys common to all resources:
+=== Configuration keys common to all resources: ===
 
     * `enable`:          true or false in order to enable or disable a resource.
+
     * `communicator` or  authentication type :  
         - `local`:       The resource will be accessed directly.
-        - `ssh`:         The resource will be accessed through ssh protocol.
-    * `username`:        Name of the user that will be used to log on to the front-end. 
+        - `ssh`:         The resource will be accessed through ssh protocol via Paramiko's API.
+        - `op_ssh`:      The resource will be accessed through ssh protocol via OpenSSH's API.
+
+    * `username`:        Name of the user that will be used to log on to the front-end.
+ 
     * `frontend`:        Hostname or ip address of either the cluster or grid user interface you'll be connected to. The syntax is "host:port", by default the port used is 22.
+
     * `private_key`:     Path to the identity file needed to log on to the front-end.
+
+    * `public key`:      Path to the public identity file needed to log on to the front-end. (OPTIONAL, by default the '''private_key''''s value will be taken, to which '''.pub''' will be added)
+
     * `scratch`:         Directory used to store temporary files for jobs during their execution, by default, it is `$HOME/.drm4g/jobs`
+
     * `lrms` or Local Resource Management System : 
         - `pbs`:           TORQUE/PBS cluster.
         - `sge`:           Grid Engine cluster. 
-        - `slurm`:         SLURM cluster.
-        - `slurm_res`:     [http://www.bsc.es/marenostrum-support-services/res RES(Red Española de Supercomputación)] resources. 
         - `loadleveler`:   !LoadLeveler cluster.
         - `lsf`:           LSF cluster.
         - `fork`:          SHELL.
         - `cream`:         CREAM Compute Elements (CE).
+        - `slurm`:         SLURM cluster.
+        - `slurm_res`:     [http://www.bsc.es/marenostrum-support-services/res RES(Red Española de Supercomputación)] resources. 
 
-Keys for non-grid resources such as HPC resources:
+[[NoteBox(tip, Note that for `communicator` you have two options when it comes to accessing a resource through the ssh protocol. If you don't know which one you prefer choose `ssh`.)]]
+
+=== Keys for non-grid resources such as HPC resources: ===
 
     * `queue`:             Queue available on the resource. If there are several queues, you have to use a "," as follows "queue  = short,medium,long".
+
     * `max_jobs_in_queue`: Max number of jobs in the queue.
+
     * `max_jobs_running`:  Max number of running jobs in the queue.
+
     * `parallel_env`:      It defines the parallel environments available for Grid Engine cluster.
+
     * `project`:           It specifies the project variable and is for TORQUE/PBS,  Grid Engine and LSF clusters.
 
-Keys for grid resources:
+=== Keys for grid resources: ===
  
     * `vo`:                Virtual Organization (VO) name.
+
     * `host_filter`:       A host list for the VO. Each host is separated by a ",". Here is an example: "host_filter = prod-ce-01.pd.infn.it, creamce2.gina.sara.nl".
+
     * `bdii`:              It indicates the BDII host to be used. The syntax is "bdii:port". If you do not specify this variable, the `LCG_GFAL_INFOSYS` environment variable defined on the grid user interface will be used by default.                      
+
     * `myproxy_server`:    Server to store grid credentials. If you do not specify this variable, the `MYPROXY_SERVER` environment variable defined on the grid user interface will be used by default.
