## ssh_slave() -- create a slave on a remote host accessed via ssh

`ssh_slave(nodename, ssh_command='ssh')`

> This creates a new slave process running on a remote host given by nodename, started using `'ssh'`. You can change the command used to start processes from ssh to, for example, `'rsh'`, with the ssh_command parameter. For most applications, you would need to set up passwordless rsh or ssh for this to be useful.
