hi folks,
just a reminder that the metrowerks folks are coming to UT
(Taylor Hall room 2.106) at 7pm tomorrow (Tues 26 Oct) to demo their

version and half off their soon to be released "professional" version will

>1. how do I make ftp to use ssh?
it's much easier to use scp (==rcp with ssh auth and encryption), but
you'll need to setup a tunnel (and have an actual user account on both
machines to do so, or have someone who does have such accounts do this)
however, with ssh all things are possible. here
pass this on to ALG and anyone else you feel might be interested.
the room seats 200, so the more the merrier!
