Maybe a little bit unrelated, but: for which kinds of logins do you =20
use OPIE? SSH or generic OS logins are obvious places to use it, but I =20
am more interested in other uses. I already use it in wordpress, but I =20
still search a way to use it for IMAP (there seems to be a protocol =20
enhancement for it, but I didn't find an implementation so far), =20
gallery2 and ejabberd (if xmpp allows something like this) without the =20
need to let them use system users (e.g. the IMAP user/pw are currently =20
in MySQL, the xmpp users are in the ejabberd internal DB, ...).

Anyone with ideas regarding this?

It would also be nice to hear other possibilities where OPIE can be =20
used (snmp auth?).

Bye,

Tomorrow I'll probably still be a dog.
Sigh!  There's so little hope for advancement.
