Hi all,

The Implementation of my Cygwin Logon Programm works fine,
but the Workarraound with SAMBA (Singlesign on is not the real Deal)
has any One an Idea?

I want to try an Implementaton of SSH2 Protokoll to my Client to make
the Authentication to my X-Server (via SSH witout the Cygwin Bash)

I dont want (like commercial StarWin implementation use th "insecure XPDM"
Protocol.

Note: I tryin to register my Project on Sourceforge.org to make it common
avaiable under the GPL. (searchname: xnet)
