One PC remote management win is that you can actually have secure
encrypted access/authentication for remote management, rather than
relying passwords in the clear and tftp.  This is lacking in all 
router venders at this instant, far as I know. 

I'm having no difficulty using ssh to access my Ascend GRF routers.
Ok, so we had to compile sshd and put it on there ourselves, but
it wasn't exactly difficult.  YMMV.


 Regards,
 Andrew
