| Pdsh is a high-performance, parallel remote shell utility. It has built-in, |
| thread-safe clients for Berkeley and Kerberos V4 rsh, and can call SSH |
| externally (though with reduced performance). Pdsh uses a "sliding window" |
| parallel algorithm to conserve socket resources on the initiating node and |
| to allow progress to continue while timeouts occur on some connections. |
| Pdsh is similar to DSH, part of the IBM PSSP software offering, but offers |
| improved performance and handling of error conditions. It runs on a variety |
| of platforms (including as a replacement for DSH on AIX/PSSP), but is |
| primarily developed on Linux. |

| This allows the use of rsh (remote shell) and rcp |
| (remote copy) for authoring websites. sftp is a much more secure protocol |
| and is preferred. |
