scp is part of ssh, as is sftp. As far as searching the package database for files a la Debian's apt-file, there is no way to do that. With various USE flags, it's difficult to know what files are and aren't in a package - it won't be the same on everyone's machine. -- Marshal Newrock, unemployed Linux user in Lansing, MI Caution: Product will be hot after heating -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
