PHP ssh2://

Introduction

The libssh2 library provides access to resources on a remote machine using a secure cryptographic transport. These are shell, remote exec, tunneling, file transfer and SCP. PHP has wrappers for these resources. They are ssh2.shell://, ssh2.exec://, ssh2.tunnel://, ssh2.sftp://, and ssh2.scp:// respectively

Note that these wrappers are not enabled by default. SSH2 extension available from PECL must be installed.
