If you need to run a remote application as root from a script, you may need ether forced-commands-only or without-password along with a key pair. For a machine that only accepts connection from the local network, the risk may be acceptable. One case where you may need this is when you use rsync to keep a backup machine in sync with the main machine. You are going to need root access on both machines. Depending on your backup setup, you may also need it for that. </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> I'm still reading the docs at SourceForge so I can enable CVS and SSL. CVS is kinda like rsync is it not? I have to have SSL enabled and then CVS to mirror my development machine and all that. Any thoughts on all that? Ric </BODY> </HTML>
