    Use mc and ssh.

    While in mc, hit Ctrl-\ (that's Control and backslash)

    It will bring up the Directory hotlist.

    Then hit "E" for New Entry.

    Type in a label - i.e. RemoteBox

    Type in a directory path as follows:

        /#sh:username@10.11.23.45/home/username

    Save it by tabbing to Insert.

    There should now be an entry in your hotlist. Using your arrow keys,
    go to your new entry and hit enter. You should now be logged in via
    ssh to your remote box. You'll probably be prompted for password unless
    you've set it up by copying your public key to the remotebox's
    .ssh/authorized_keys file.

    In any event, you now will have your local box on one side of mc, and
    your remote box on the other side, and full functionality of mc.
