guys.. The project that the corrupt system is going to be driving will create a distributed network of systems, where the edge systems, are tied back into the central server(s). Think of the BOINC/SETI project, where you have a bunch of edge systems doing "work" and communicating back to the master system/process. The project was looking to use secure SSH in a manner, where there are public/private keys for the master/child servers(services) can comunicate with each other over the specified encrypted ports/tunnels. However, it occurs to me that if one of the master/child servers is hacked, then the person doing the hacking could get into the connected server via the SSH key/process. Comments/thoughts on options that can be considered viable/secure for the process of remotely accessing machines, that would allow for auto/programatic connection/xfer of data? thanks On Thu, Dec 19, 2013 at 1:04 PM, Steven Stern <subscribed-lists@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 12/18/2013 11:05 AM, bruce wrote: >> Hey guys. - subject says it all!! >> >> For a basic centos/fedora install.
