Currently, I'm using simple FTP to do the job. But since I want to secure the communication, I had to chose between two options: 1) using SSH from the client to the server. In this manner, the client has shell access as well. 2) using SSH tunneling, I can use then FTP to transfer files securely. In this case, the client doesn't have shell access. Since I don't want to give shell access for clients, I need to use 2) above. The problem is that I don't know how... Anyone can shed more light, or direct me to where I can get more info? Thanks in advance. Noor To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
