Subject: pasing data between 2 win XP boxes via internet

Hi folks,

been trolling the net for a long time off and on but NOW i must get this
problem sorted.

I am needing to pass via the internet data from a Desktop PC to a Laptop
and vis versa in an adhoc manner.

I know i want to use net::SCP or one of the SSH family protocols, My
problem is i haven't been able to find a suitable sample code to look at
or use.

I believe my desktop program can be converted to work as a web app but
that is for a future iteration.

problem is currently.

how to pass a stream of data in a secure manner using SSH protocos from
a winXP Pro OS to a winXP Pro OS using 1.8.6.X ruby.

there won't be a "server" used for the present and so would like to push
data from one end to the other when the user has an update needed to be
passed on.

I am totally new to the net::XXXX protocols so any help would be
appreciated.

Dave.


PS any help in using PuTTy as an agent would be appreciated also as this
may help - again advise required.
