David Thompson:
 |I got to thinking, doesn't ssh handle things like "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" 
 |directly? So is it necessary to enhance the UI to need the username?

ssh1/ssh2 do, but rsh doesn't.

However my UI thought wasn't related to the remote shell command syntax,
but rather usability.  Most users when prompted for "Hostname:" wouldn't
think that this _isn't_ really "hostname", but rather "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".

If there were a "User:" field and a "Hostname:" field, it'd be obvious what
to do.
