Mindterm SSH Client

Instructions for installing the MindTerm applet

Download the source code from http://www.mindbright.se/download/ Use the file mindtermsrc-v121.tgz - I couldn't get the compiled code to work so I rolled it myself. You can use javac instead of jikes, but jikes is much faster.

Unpack the archive into (say) /usr/local/java/classes/ This will create the directory structre


/usr/local/java/classes/mindbright/
		application/
		dummies/
		gui/
		net/
		security/
		ssh/
		terminal/
		util/

now,


cd /usr/local/java/classes/mindbright/

jikes -depend  -classpath $CLASSPATH:dummies:.. application/MindTerm.java
jikes -depend  -classpath $CLASSPATH:dummies:.. security/DES3.java
jikes -depend  -classpath $CLASSPATH:dummies:.. ssh/SSHMenuHandlerFull.java 

cd ..

jar cvf mindbright/mindterm.jar $(find mindbright -name "*.class" -print)

Now create an html page containing something like:


<applet archive="mindterm.jar" code="mindbright.application.MindTerm.class"
width="580" height="400"> 
<param name="autoprops" value="none">
<param name="menus" value="pop3">
</applet>

For more parameters and their meanings see the README file that comes with the distribution. If you use reverse video in the terminal, then you may need to add something like netscape*drawingArea*canvas.canvas.XmMenuShell*XmRowColumn*foreground: lightgray to your .Xdefaults in order to see the menus. Warning: you will only be able to connect to your local host machine using this, unless you disable the security restrictions in your web browser.
