This extension module allows to use an ssh connection to perform distributed copy and installation of rpm packages over a network. To use this module, edit /etc/urpmi/parallel.cfg and add an alias line as follows : <name>:ssh:<node list separated by ':'> or <name>:ssh(<default media>):<node list separated by ':'> where: <name> is the "alias name" parameter of --parallel options of the urpm* tools, <default media> is the default --media parameter for this alias, <node list separated by ':'> is a list of nodes (network hosts), for example "node1:node2: ...:nodeN". You can specify 'localhost' as a node name if you want to include the server in the list of machines to be upgraded.
