Description Igor Hjelmstrom Vinhas Ribeiro 2010-11-01 21:53:24 UTC 
Shell in a box is a really nice application that allows you to export any console-based application as an AJAX Web application. This is possible even with a login shell, allowing you to use your computer from anywhere where HTTP requests are allowed (no ssh needed). I will attach an ebuild for that.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attached ebuild.

Why did you add amd64 here? let bug-wranglers do their job

I added this because I only tested the ebuild under AM64. I see now it was a mistake. Sorry.

By the way - the best way of testing this (which gives you a nice login shell
without the complications of settings up ssl certs correctly) is

shellinaboxd -t -s /:LOGIN 

Them go to http://localhost:4200

By default, root logins are not allowed.

Amazing project I'd like to package for Gentoo. I will take a gander at it when I get round to it. @shell-tools if you want to help, be my guest.
