The purpose of bb-fetch stays the same as the old one. Instead of sending bb data from the client to the server, with bb-fetch the bb data will be collected by the server using the ssh protocol. This is very handy at well protected sites like DMZ's where no connections are allowed to the localnet but ssh connections are allowed from the localnet to the DMZ.
Has been tested on Linux, Solaris 7, 8 and HPUX 10.20, 11.00 but works on most platforms.
