[announce] S-terminal: a secure X terminal based on KNOPPIX
Hi folks,
Here's something you may find useful. S-terminal is a little
application that can be used along with KNOPPIX to create a secure
X terminal. You can combine it with KNOPPIX on a single CD, pop
the CD into an unused PC and, voila! you've got an X terminal.
See the following page for more information:
http://ayesha.phys.virginia.edu/~bry...pix/sterminal/
S-terminal looks more or less like a typical X terminal, except that
the xdm login screen you'd usually see has been replaced with a local
application that creates an encrypted ssh tunnel through which all
X traffic passes.
Let me know if you get any use out of it.

Hello Bryan,
I don't know if I missed it on your instructions but I found that I had to edit a line in the sshd_config file on the server machine, I needed to change the X11Forwarding line from no to yes in /etc/ssh/sshd_config (on a debian system):
... (snip)
X11Forwarding no
... (snip)
change it to:
... (snip)
X11Forwarding yes
... (snip)
save the file and then restart ssh on your server.
(in debian: /etc/init.d/ssh restart)
The other thing I noticed is that .xsession is used for the window manager / desktop environment selection so I had to change that file in the users home directory so it started the proper wm /de.
Thanks,
rock

Thanks for the information. I don't have any Debian machines around here to experiment with. I'll add a note about these things to the next version of the README file.
Bryan
