Yes. I am using scp from the ssh package to transfer files. Works real
good.
And I dont have to login at all since I have set up a .shosts file.
I just do for example
scp ppp_2.2.0f-10* debian:Incoming
ann 10
to upload software+announce software. debian is in my /etc/hosts with the
ip of master. And Incoming is a symlink in my homedirectory on master
pointing to the upload directory.
Announce script called ann is a one liner:
mail debian-changes@lists.debian.org -s *$1_i386.changes <*$1_i386.changes
