[NTLUG:Discuss] Shell from a webpage

[Mark Hanna]

This method will not work if I am at a location that for whatever reason has port 22 is blocked and port 80 is open.  This would also require my local machine I am "web browsing" from be a M$ Windows machine, unless I want to host putty version for differnt hw architectures.  
 
Having a shell from within a browser makes for a more local platform neutral solution.

Simple..
Put a copy of Putty on your website. If you are at someother side, you
just launch the URL to Putty and instead of saving it, you run it. SSH
in as normal.. I did it that way a bunch when I was in Norway..
