Re: debian-user-digest Digest V2003 #1051



Now I've got a fileserver all configured and worked out the neccessary
redundancy senario's, I'd like to administer it remotely. I know of
webmin and someone suggested ssh in another thread any other methods i
should look at.

I think that ssh (The Secure Shell) is the only real alternative. There are other methods of course, but are they as compatible? Are they as secure? Are they as efficient?

If you learn The Secure Shell you will be able to use other programs that utilize it as a back end, like Emacs' tramp for example.

ssh is easy to use and can be combined with other programs as well as ecapsulated in a shell script. ssh is a modern, strongly encrypted program that will protect your data.

Cheers,

Jeremiah
