Looks very interesting. I was hoping it would solve a problem I’ve had recently: I want to ssh into a windows box that I only have a normal user account on. So I can’t (and don’t want to) change any admin settings or install anything as admin. All the obvious approaches hit roadblocks. Seems like this tool solves the opposite problem: sshing out from a minimally privledged environment.
You can start your own ssh daemon from the unprivileged account pointing to a random port.

#41Ya, you would think so. But when you connect to it and sshd tries to fork a process to handle the session… you get a privileges error.
