    CGI bash terminal

    i know it would be an outragous security hole, but wouldnt it be awesome to have a CGI bash terminal?
    mobile terminal so one could admin his/her server or whatever from anywhere.
    has it been done? where could i get the app? if its not made yet, how hard would it be?

    How different is that then SSHing into your box???

    On any computer, anywhere I go, if I want to get a terminal on my box, I either SSH into it (which is pretty common to be found on any linux box) or download a small app called puTTY.exe (for windows). Then, as long as you have a PC with an internet connection, you can get just that...

    I agree with deek. In fact, there are Java SSH clilent applets (like MindTerm) that you can put on your website instead of a CGI script, if you insist on using it in a web browser.
