Apologies for the delay.  It appears that there have been some new
releases of anyterm.  I need to reevaluate how this will work.  I also
noticed that anyterm can execute an arbitrary "shell".  So something
like "ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]", where %u expands to the username of the
HTTP_AUTH authenticated user, might work just as well and be more
secure.

That is an interesting idea.  I will take a look at it (hopefully this
week) and get back to you.

I have already completed the package.  However, I am still working on
finding a solution to being able to allow logins without requiring the
addition of the www-data user to the utmp group.  This is currently
necessary because of the way the application is written.  However, this
is not acceptable from a security perspective.  If you have any
suggestions, please let me know.

Hello,
 Can I try complete anyterm package disscused on
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=311597 ?
 Librote is in debian distributed and I use this app on my ubuntu
machine. Is somewhere any prototype?
 Tnx 4 info.
