SSH Client with scheduler

    Does anyone know of a SSH client that will allow you to schedule events?

    For example I would like to rsync weekly at 12AM...Any ideas?

    Thanks

    You would probably have to use it in conjunction with a separate scheduling program. If you are running it on a UNIX/Linux host, you could just schedule something out of cron. You would have to set up pre-authenticated keys first so that your job wouldn't get stuck at a password prompt.
