Hello Andradas, I was thinking now the same way ... how does it do the authentication ... horatio looks really nice but if the users have to keep a web browser opened all the times this is the same like the certificates authentication ... and it doesn`t seem like an option to me ... . Many students just chat on yahoo messenger ...
It is indeed a solution ... I'll consider it. HTB is for sure going to be used if i'll have a secure authentication method and leave all ports opened.
