OK, I have been having problems with my gw (it keeps dying on me) but here is
some info:
--- The Stanford SRP Authentication Project ---
The networked password problem has been solved. Simple challenge-response
authentication is dead.
SRP stands for the Secure Remote Password protocol, and it represents a new
mechanism for performing secure password-based authentication and key
exchange over any type of network. SRP offers both security and convenience
improvements over authentication techniques currently in use.
The SRP project is developing secure Internet software for free worldwide
use. Starting with a fully-secure Telnet and FTP distribution, we hope to
supplant weak networked authentication systems with strong replacements that
do not sacrifice user-friendliness for security. Security should be the
default, not an option!
---
It seems like there are only FTP and Telnet support for this protocol as it is
now, but that will change i hope =)
