"SSH is a program enabling secure access to remote filesystems. Not everyone is aware of other powerful SSH capabilities, such as passwordless login, automatic execution of commands on a remote system or even mounting a remote folder using SSH! In this article we'll cover these features and much more."

... I assume it is faster then normal every day "scp -C", right?
BTW, why not use gzip and/or bzip2 for compression?
It's faster and you can throw sudo's in there to copy files you don't own if needed. Gzip isn't installed on every unix, it certainly isn't on our reduced DMZ builds. It's also more flexible : you can only copy a predefined list of files, or use find to pipe a list of files into the tar. It also has the added bonus of confusing those new to unix ;-)
