[PATCH 0/3] Add support for XML-RPC over SSH

[Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>]

The following set of patches add support to Xend and xm for XML-RPC over 
SSH.  These patches are small and pretty self-contained so they 
shouldn't hinder the introduction of XML-RPC over HTTPS.  There are a 
number of good reasons to support XML-RPC over SSH.  It requires no 
additional open ports simplifying firewall configuration.  There's no 
additional server configuration (or certificate creation).  It also is 
rather easy to support from a client perspective.

I've tested this series with xm-test and there are no new unexpected 
failures[1].  The xm-test runs were done with both the httpu protocol 
and the ssh protocol.

This series assumes the application of the XML-RPC Keep-Alive patch I 
previously posted.

[1] One of the non-root tests unexpectedly passed since the user I was 
running authenticated over ssh as root.
