-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 It is true that OpenSSH no longer supports the none cipher. I believe it is possible to enable it within the source code but I wouldn't recommend that.
Depending on your CPU you can get a big benefit from using either -c arcfour or by using the hpn patch set. Also, if you are certain enough about the security of your network that you don't need encryption you don't really need ssh. Rsync can use any network transport that is command line compatible with rsh which of course includes rsh. Rsync also has its own daemon that you can configure and run.
