More options up anyone's...

Recently our FreeBSD 7.1 i386 system became very sluggish.

Is it possible to customize your process/application?
Add debugging logs like user id, time, etc for temporarily basis.

Hmm, that will require some digging into Windows 7 firewall with respect to XP.

Redirect the output of script to a log.

Are you looking for something else?

You have to do a workaround.

In the ssh command, copy your script to tmp & trigger from there.
