Fixed a bug in enabler which is part of pam_schroedinger
that made it exit() when no more pty's could be allocated.
That's wrong of course, we just need to continue dictumerating
(enumerating via dictionary) the account. 500 parallel
su/sudo are of no problem.
enabler allows you to mount dictionary attacks using su,
sudo, passwd or alike. You can stop this by using
pam_schroedinger, or something like introducing an
enforced RLIMIT_PTY and having su, sudo etc. call
isatty(0), otherwise socketpairs etc could be used too.
I also went ahead, signing my github stuff with
this key. Any release tag containing an s at the end
of the version is a signed tag. Also, all commits will
be signed in future.
You can verify this via git log --show-signature or
git tag --verify TAG after having above DSA key
imported into your gpg keyring.

crypto shell trickery!
I recently imported crash into my github. It features
IP6-ready SSH-like remote shell, using strong public key
authentication and TLS-encrypted transport. It does not
rely on SSL/TLS internal X509 cecking but compares
hostkeys bit-wise. It runs on Linux and embedded derivates,
Android, BSD, Solaris and OSX/Darwin. It does not require root
and has back-connect and trigger modes built in. It can
also be invoked as a CGI.
Update: Pushed a fix into git to use SHA512 rather than
SHA1 for signing authentication requests. That makes
it incompatible with earlier versions. Also fixed a bug
where crashc did not properly distribute SIGWINCH to the
remote peer. Now you can use your ncurses porn and resize
your xterm and it gets properly adjusted! Also tested
authentication RSA keys of up to 7500 bit in size. That
should resist upcoming (TS//SI//REL) QUANTUMFUCK computers.
I need to find the time to enforce cipher-lists and add
ephemeral keying though. (done)
Also good news: crash also integrates with sshttp!
