Well frankly, I've not discovered a better way than "ssh" yet. There might be a slight speed gain over NOT_encrypting but that surely doesn't weigh up to the security ssh gives. Don't try to use vnc at those speeds...it's just too damn slow, as actualy all X-forwarding is too! Get used to the commandline and you'll be administrating at a lot lower speed if need be:) Another speed gain would/could also be keeping a mirrored copy of your remote websites locally and then using "rsync" to keep them updated (in sync) -- be it in secure_mode or not.....but that would be a different thread;) NFS is certainly NOT the way to go for easy/fast web maintainance, that was meant for local (LAN) stuff. -- Good luck, HarM
