SSH compatibilty on applications

[Jimmy Rogers]

My servers and I have recently reorg'ed into an area of my company that relies on such apps as Maestro, Unison, ESM, and Best1. My servers have been locked down pretty well with SSH, but these apps require remsh commands. Are there not any SSH compatible versions of these applications out there anywhere? How do other shops handle these incongruities. I'm almost desperate enough to link rcp -> scp to see if it will work.

[Ralf Hildebrandt]

That would be the way to go.
If that doesn't work, write little shell wrappers that add/throw away command line arguments.

As Ralf suggests, you already have the answer available to you in "scp" ..... but why link it? - just ensure that you have the absolute path of "scp" in $PATH.
Its advantage over "rcp" is that you don't have to remember which system is secure and which is not.
And the difference in behaviour between the two is minimal (official) and usually only involves key exchanges if it is not already configured.
