Yep, that's the complication that scares me. I have an application that runs in an embedded device. Currently, it is browser based, running through SSL, using AMFPHP to execute shell_exec() commands to run low-level Unix scripts to configure the devices.
The project managers now want to remove the app from the browser and use AIR, and connect via a binary socket to call and run those UNIX scripts. I have all the root access permissions I need. But using a secure connection like SSH would be the cat's meow. I can currently do everything I need through sockets with Telnet but there is no security layer on it (that I know of) and that just isn't gonna fly with the execs. --- In [email protected], Tom Chiverton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Thursday 13 Nov 2008, r.fender wrote: > > Just thought I'd throw that question out there to see what you all know. > > SSH is really, really, complicated. > What are you trying to achieve ? > > -- > Tom Chiverton > Helping to synergistically enhance functionalities > > > > **************************************************** > > This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP. > > Halliwells LLP is a limited liability partnership registered in England and > Wales under registered number OC307980 whose registered office address is at Halliwells LLP, 3 Hardman Square, Spinningfields, Manchester, M3 3EB.
