Giving Root to the WebGiving Root to the WebPosted Mar 8, 2003 13:28 UTC (Sat) by Adriaan (guest, #10014)In reply to: Giving Root to the Web by strombrg Parent article: Giving Root to the Web Why not use ssh -X -L 10001:remote.server:10000 remote.server and mozilla localhost:10001 from the admin's machine You could only allow loopback connections to Webmin on the server that way; you wouldn't even have to use https. It would still be a problem doing this from an Internet café though, as most (Windows) machines in Internet cafés don't have an X server running :-/

Giving Root to the Web Posted Mar 11, 2003 23:01 UTC (Tue) by mogul (subscriber, #3163) [Link] Ladies and gentlemen, I give you WeirdMind:http://spiro.fisica.unipd.it/servizi/weirdx/weirdmind/weirdmind/ "WeirdMind allows you to embed an entire X server and SSH1 client in your java-enabled web browser. If an X program is opened, the X server will be automatically started, and the window will pop up on top of your web browser." That's right... A full ssh client and X server in a browser applet. I've used it to do both routine and emergency admin work from internet cafes while on vacation in Canada, Europe, Japan, etc. Rejoice, and Hallelujah my brethren!
