ssh is awesome

[Chester Langin <chester@langin.com>]

Aside from the crypto, ssh is a virtual
network file system, actually Internet
file system.  For each host, I configure
an alias and username.  I set up the keys
and activate ssh-agent.  Then, I can access
any of these machines from home as easy as
typing...

ssh alias

I can copy files between remote machines
from my home as easy as this...

scp alias1:filename alias2

That's it.  No signons or passwords.  This
has eliminated the need for a lot of expect
script for me.

Thanks Steve for being such a salesman on
this (even though it took me several months
to implement it).
