Does this require a ssh client or server? I use authpf to open up my PF firewall for internet use. Generally I just open up putty and make a connection to the FW ( which open the ports) and minize it till I am done. When I close putty authpf losses the ssh session heartbeat and will then instruct the FW to close the ports. I would love to write a simple client to do this form me instead of using putty. Do you think these mods would work for me on a windows platform?
