Re: Cfengine over ssh tunnel

[Andy Mayhew]

This is fairly out of date, but this paper I wrote talks a bit about
tunneling cfengine.  It maybe of some help.

But I would avoid doing this.  At least the way I incorporated ssh
tunnels was very resource intensive and slowed down the entire
transfer process.
