Hello,

I just don't feel good sending my password in clear text over the
network.  Is there a way to ecrypt this?  At least the authentication
stuff--I don't really care that much about the messages themselves
being sent in clear text.

Perhaps there's a way to tunnel pgnus' connections through ssh?  Has
anyone done this?

-Dan
