for dialup authentication? IIRC it was designed to allow
secure-enough authentication
over a sniffable channel (modem traffic) at the cost of forcing

I think that if obfuscating the source code (by compiling or

run. So maybe C is the best choic

if you have enough disk space, you could actually create the tarball into

there was talk at Astercon about doing similar things with
the perl/asterisk interface.
