# Jabber-SH — SH console via XMPP/Jabber (GTalk)
#
# Jabber-SH allows you to administrate a remote computer via a command line 
# through a Jabber client. It’s like SSH via GoogleTalk! :)
# This is just a hack but it might be usefull sometime to run basic commands
# on a machine that is not accessible via ssh.

# The user CLIENT_LOGIN logs into the console by sending the CLIENT_PASSPHRASE.
