Not strictly true, since:

ssh user@remoteIP ls -l /Users

...works as expected. But

...does work, so I'm a happy bunny -- almost.

Can I also somehow pass in the required password so ssh doesn't need to ask
for it, when the command originates from the user "nobody" (ie. I can't use
my usual method of a pregenerated RSA key as in
<http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20011207004643312&query=ssh+pa
ssword+key>).

And before anyone asks -- I'm trying to see if there is a way to script
Photoshop via Apple's new Xgrid <http://www.apple.com/acg/xgrid/>, and
Photoshop seems almost untouchable using Remote Apple Events.

TIA,

Nigel
