HINT: sure would be a nice addition to Fedora FC14!! It's really desirable for doing scp or ssh to/from a VM from the host. Why spend CPU encrypting a connection which is as trusted as possible? Note that for just file transfer netcat can be useful if you have the firewall set to allow it. -- Bill Davidsen <davidsen@xxxxxxx> "We have more to fear from the bungling of the incompetent than from the machinations of the wicked." - from Slashdot -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
