Secure Shell

Mathematica's computational kernel can be run on a computer that is separate from the user and front-end notebook interface. This is advantageous in cases where a more-powerful remote computer is available.

Newly in Version 5.2, Mathematica can now communicate through a secure shell environment that is typical in many organizations, rather than just insecure connections such as remote shell.

Example:

Many firewalls prevent RSH communication but allow SSH. Mathematica 5.2 can use either protocol for communication between its front-end interface and computational kernel.
