[kepler-dev] ssh actors parameter passing

[Norbert Podhorszki]

Hi Unni,

I was the developer of the SSH actors. You cannot specify ports.
Although the underlying src/org/kepler/ssh base code allows to specify 
the ports, none of the actors have been modified to do that.

None of the options common for OpenSSH can be used here, as Kepler does 
not use openssh, but a java ssh implementation (JSch package).
