 What does this software bring over pdsh ?

The person who asked me to package it tells me prsync (at least).

FYI (and if you don't already know) /usr/bin/pscp is also provided by

Thx, bye,

That's something I'm still wondering about - I can't see the advantage
of pscp over scp. Putty is nice to have for all the people who switch
from Windows to Debian and who're used to it - but pscp???

Cheers,

Bernd

I don't know for the unix version, but the windows version of pscp can
load putty configurations, which makes it quite easy to do fancy setups
(like going through proxies and such) and be able to use them with pscp.

People using putty are likely to love this feature, while having to
write openssh conf files might be a problem for them.

ah ok, seems I've missed some years of putty development since we have
cygwin on the windows boxes at work.
