Yes. We're talking about security on two (almost) independent layers. WLAN encryption secures all data transfered over the air (but no further). SSH encrypts all data transfered through it's connection with the server (except maybe the key exchange, but this is done in a secure fashion too). So if you start a SSH session when on an encrypted wireless network, the data is actually encrypted twice, once by SSH, and again by the wireless connection. Otherwise it's encrypted only once, by SSH.

DESCRIPTION

       bssh/bvnc/bshell  browses  for  SSH/VNC	servers  on  the  local  network, shows them in a GUI for the user to select one and finally calls

       If the binary is called as bssh only ssh servers will be shown. If the binary is called as bvnc only VNC servers  will  be  shown.  If  the
       binary is called as bshell both VNC and SSH servers are shown.

       -s | --ssh
	      Browse for SSH servers (and only SSH servers) regardless under which name the binary is called.

       -v | --vnc
	      Browse for VNC servers (and only VNC servers) regardless under which name the binary is called.

       -S | --shell
	      Browse for both VNC and SSH servers regardless under which name the binary is called.

       -d | --domain= DOMAIN
	      Browse in the specified domain. If omitted bssh/bvnc/bshell will browse in the default browsing domain (usually .local)
