I thought about turning that on and recompiling, but I'm a bit lazy right
now. I think I'm going to try and grab module from the pentium tarball and
try insmoding it into my system and see what happens. =)

That's exactly what it's doing. Apparently - according to the posts on SF
about it - for some reason, running scp causes a shell to start after you
enter your password. No problems the other way around, and I was also able
to ftp my files from the site I've been using, which is yet another way to
do it. =)
