That's exactly what the goal of this is. Except it avoids using SSH over the public network, since spiped is more reliable and also (I think) more trustworthy. One takeaway for me from the heartbleed bug is to place less trust in large, general-purpose C libraries. Compared to SSH, spiped is a comparatively much smaller codebase, maintained by the excellent cperciva.
