If you can set up a web server on the machine you would like to get
into, you can even eliminate the need for a SSH client on the remote
machine. You can use the Mindterm SSH Java applet, which only requires
a Java enabled web browser. It even lets me use the HTTP proxy at work
to get to my machine. I like it very much!
Now, back to the topic. I don't really have a technical grip with Pine,
my gripe with Pine is it has a REALLY lame lisence. It really is not
Free Software, but tries to pretend to be. Just doesn't sit right with
me.
