Dave,

In Brians defense, the source for the looking glass in use at
nitrous.digex.net is available at the same location.

The source code for the LG I wrote for use in our network is available at:

ftp://ftp.enterzone.net/looking-glass/mrlg-3.0/

It was written for use with Zebra but will work with anything with a
telnet/rsh UI.

I am by no means a perl god but, it works and is commented.  Feel free to
give it a try.

Myself and many I know use nitrous.digex.net when such a thing is needed.

I dont think he asked "Does anyone know the URL to a looking glass?"

How exactly does this help Ariel find some software to create one? I know
you are just trying to help, but geeze, he wants to create his own looking
glass, not use someone elses. People need to READ messages before responding
to them.

  Hi guys/gals,



   I am looking for looking-glass software that is secure (i.e., that
people wont be able to fiddle with the web server it's on). The security
factor is critical.

   I have written such software myself, but as my boss points out,
software that was already tested by alot of people, and that has been
running for a while is better security wise than anything I can write
and
only visually test.

   There are quite a few LG on the web, some Perl based, some PHP based,
and I even saw one in C (!!). I just want to know which is mostly used.

   My personal feeling is that alot of sites just wrote their own, am I
mistaken ?


thanks,

--Ariel
