Forget mcfs.  It's a non-standard protocol that is supported only by MC.  
It really should be retired and removed from the sources to eliminate
confusion, but it's useful for testing VFS (virtual filesystem support)  
exactly because it's a simple mc-specific protocol.

You should be able to tunnel mcfs connections over ssh, but it's a strange 
idea.

I don't quite understand from your words what's wrong with FiSH.  Maybe
it's insufficiently documented and you are not aware of its existance?

No, although it's already the second request to incorporate ssh
functionaly into mc within a few days.
