Hello, I would like to contribute a GSI authentication module to SSHTools. The Grid computing community uses GSI extensively. www.globus.org NCSA as developed a GSI-Enabled OpenSSH client and server in C. My module enables SSHTerm to authenticate to this server. http://grid.ncsa.uiuc.edu/ssh/ It is a very useful extension for the Grid community and I would like to contribute it to SSHTools. My patch consists of a few classes and jars developed by Globus. The jars are about 12Megs. Note: This module uses the GSS API to authenticate and is general enough that it could be ported to Kerberos. Let me know if you are interested in receiving this patch. If not I will contribute it to Globus.
