MultiSSH, do you mean this one: http://oss.linbit.com/multissh/? Or something else? > 2. What's the best way for newbies to learn about all the predefined > tasks and variables in 2.3?

Alas, documentation is really Capistrano's achilles heel right now. The "best" way to learn about the predefined tasks is via "cap -T", and then "cap -e taskname" for each task, to read about what they do. The best way to learn about the predefined variables is to look through capistrano/recipes/deploy.rb. Not what you wanted to hear, I'm sure. - Jamis --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/capistrano -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
