Are you sure your hoster doesn't provide ssh access to his machines?

With some loss of security, you may even be able to avoid handling passwords. /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn <jgrahn@ Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu \X/ algonet.se> R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
