Monkey-patch execnet with more ssh settings, port, identity file, non-interactive (Python recipe) by Dima Tisnek
ActiveState Code (http://code.activestate.com/recipes/577545/)

execnet ( http://codespeak.net/execnet/ ) is pretty cool, but its ssh support needs a few tweaks, here they are.

This snipped is a monkey patch, not a diff, import it and you can use execnet.makeportgateway instead of makegateway.

Adapt to your needs even more!

we would have appreciated a note to add that to execnet itself

I thought I tried to send an email to the list, but now I can't find it, I guess I just forgot!

another note / as of now, that code wont work with the develop version of execnet, sshgateway is gone
