In addition to Andrei's suggestions, 'mc' (as well as konqueror through its virtual filesystem support, and whatever GNOME's file mangler is these days provided the right deps are installed) offers virtual filesystem access to remote hosts over ssh. Utilize your existing ssh-agent for transparent access. I usually use lftp's "fish" protocol myself: lftp fish://remotehost Interactive ftp-like client. Very useful. Supports multiple protocols, including, oddly enough, ftp. For truly transparent access, look to FUSE and sshfs: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/sshfs.html -- Dr. Ed Morbius, Chief Scientist / | Robot Wrangler / Staff Psychologist | When you seek unlimited power Krell Power Systems Unlimited | Go to Krell! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
