FYI: I have a patch which stores the secrets from secstore in /dev/secstore
in drawterm so your profile can start factotum -n and populate the factotum
with cat - and then importantly clear out the /dev/secstore.

I did't write this code put found it on the net (kudos to the original author).

it means you can start drawterm with a just a click linux/osx/windows click
and secstore password.

It is less secure, but I am using this at home only.

Re: [9fans] default profile and factotum

Hello,

I think it's a kind of compromise between drawterm and rcpu. Woth 
drawterm you don't have a factotum (that would be love), so you can't 
bind it.


With drawterm you'd need running factotum on the cpu, which is not that 
nice...


I never ended up using the original pro-file (pun intended) from newuser. 
I always adjusted it to my needs and now I have a nicely working profile. 
I assume it's meant to be adjusted to your situation.


I think that's like you can't install a generic Plan 9 system and expect 
it to fit your needs. It always depends on your network, the machines 
etc.


Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Btw the drawterm /dev/secstore stuff never worked for me. I don't even 
know why I would need the auth server in drawterm...
