General Philosophy

The original intention was to have a Remote Planner user account on ssh2@ISAS that would be able to interact with eisco@ISAS via SSH without using passwords. In this way, only a few scripts would have been required to fetch and send back the various files and databases between the remote planner's machine and eisco@ISAS. However, this has been rejected on the grounds of security.

Hence, the remote planner must perform several of these tasks manually. Oh well - that's more typing for you!
