I agree, I've looked at the launcher code that deals with sync authentication 
and it's very confusing. My suggestion would be to just authenticate against 
the Unix login name / password of the user. We'd need to provide an easy way 
of setting the password within Opie, which is probably a good idea anyway 
particularly for users who want to log in remotely via SSH.

Cheers,
Paul
