DRC,
Thank-you for your prompt reply to my rather verbose email. :-)

Sounds good !

I initially used a Python SSH API for my wxPython TurboVNC launcher's SSH
tunnel, but I found that the performance was terrible - compiled SSH binaries
are much faster than interpreted Python code. I guess your Java SSH tunnel
would be as fast or almost as fast as compiled C code?
Thanks very much for your detailed explanation about the issue of having to
authenticate twice (once for SSH tunnel and once for TurboVNC/PAM). I might
have to read over your explanation a few times before I fully digest it. :-)
Kind regards,
James
