[Parti-discuss] [PATCH] simple password support

[Antoine Martin]

Hi,

This is a very simple (read insecure) way of adding authentication to
xpra: we just add a new field to capabilities and check the password
before accepting the connection past the "hello".

It does help protect local users, but is of absolutely no benefit if the
data is sent over the wire as this is absolutely trivial to snoop.

A more secure (but intrusive) password patch will follow.

Cheers
Antoine
