Re: SSH

Hi Robert,

I can't get your code working, because the MindTerm library isn't available 
any more.

I've got an answer from James Moody from the Eclipse-mailing list:
<snip>
extssh uses the build-in SSH library. It works fine for us, but it only
supports SSH 1.0 protocol, so if you have a server that only uses the SSH
2.0 protocol, you can't use it. Also, in its current incarnation extssh
does not support RSA public key authentication.

ext uses an external ssh or rsh binary. It supports whatever protocol the
external binary supports. However you have to have RSA public key
authentication set up already, since we have no way of prompting for a
password using this method.
