I am often at remote locations around town trying to login to my server.
For security reasons, usually I do not have access to a shell to start with.
I setup my last server with X windows, VNC, portforwarding etc.
So I could login to my server via any internet web browser and have
shell access to my home server.
This time I am not running X.
Less memory and diskspace and a fair bit more secure.
Therefore I do not believe vnc will work. I think vnc requires X. (get
the familiar display GTK+ error upon startup)
Therefore I am trying to get the same functionality as before.
Login from any web browser and get ssh shell access to my home server.
This time without using X (or having a shell access to start from)
I have found MindTerm. and javassh. (Toronto Public Library is blocking
some java outbound ports.)
Maybe I can get javassh to use a port TPL is not blocking.
Are there other solutions to this TLUG users have used?
TIA from Teddy
