Feature request: Support for the HTTP-to-SSH relay protocol from the Secure Shell Chrome Application #242

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
The Secure Shell Chrome Application[1] provides a high quality SSH client that 
can talk (1) directly to an SSH server and (2) to an SSH server via a special 
HTTP-to-SSH relay.

Unfortunately that HTTP-to-SSH relay implementation is not open source. In the 
Secure Shell FAQ [2] they mention that it would be straight forward to reverse 
engineer the protocol and make an open source implementation by looking at 
nassh_google_relay.js but I was thinking another option would be to just add 
support to the shellinabox server that would allow it to speak this HTTP-to-SSH 
relay protocol. Is this doable? Does it even make sense?
