Sounds a bit like vnc, except I have not set it up to drag files, using a ssh/scp/sftp tool for that, which perhaps should be a secured transfer. Still, many a personal project has become a set of great additions to a pre-existant project. The vnc guys are doing a dual track free/pay thing, so maybe they will pay you. I go free, sometimes over an ssh tunnel.

You might Samba mount the systems to be PC drives or some part of your PC as a local dir. I suppose samba can work through an ssh tunnel or maybe has security of its own. I never drilld down there. Andrew can make all the machines into a tree, not only on the PC but, if you want, on each other! Again, I wonder if the NFS-ish apps have taken ssh to heart, never mind compression over the net.

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

DESCRIPTION

       sftp-server is a subsystem for sshd(1M) and must not be run directly. There are no options or config settings.

       To enable the sftp-server subsystem for sshd add the following to /etc/ssh/sshd_config:

       Subsystem   sftp     /usr/lib/ssh/sftp-server

       See sshd_config(4) for a description of the format and contents of that file.

       There is no relationship between the protocol used by sftp-server and the FTP protocol (RFC 959) provided by in.ftpd.

       The following exit values are returned:

       0        Successful completion.
