A channel is always closed after executing a command, and I *think* 
that's part of the protocol, so there may not be any way around it.
I think what they mean by "dummy channel" is just opening a second 
channel, not using it, then closing it when your done. This may keep the 
server from closing the socket on you. You can see some examples of how 
to set up the channels directly in the demos, or in the SSHClient class 
itself.
