arts-securitymanager

[Stefan Westerfeld]

   Hi!

I have now put up a tarball with a security manager for artsd (rather MCOP)
which allows to selectively select which clients might connect to the server
and which servers a client might want to connect to. A README is included.

http://space.twc.de/~stefan/kde/download/arts-securitymanager.tar.bz2

However, it has a major problem in the sense that somebody who needs to
verify an ID will also be able to pretend that he actually is that person.
If anybody who has some idea how this could be circumvented in an relatively
easy to implement way (public key crypto?), that would help a lot.

Otherwise it might just remain a proof of concept toy thing.

   Cu... Stefan
