Can you elaborate a bit beyond try <insert program here>? Does it solve 
any of the problems I mentioned in my post?

with ppk pairs with no passwords. I usually just use ppk pairs and cycle them 
out every month; I get a stronger authentication and I
can just quickly log in. This is especially nice due to a bug I've found in scp 
where sometimes it will ask for the password and you
won't know, until you realize that your files are not saving.
