We already track a requirement for having a non-SSH based provider for remote execution in BZ1316598, so I'm going ahead and marking this one as a duplicate. If you feel BZ1316598 doesn't fully cover the original report, please feel free to reopen it or add more details to the other BZ. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1316598 ***
