Terminal access in browser over http/https

WeTTY

Terminal over HTTP and https. WeTTY is an alternative to ajaxterm and anyterm but much better than them because WeTTY uses xterm.js which is a full fledged implementation of terminal emulation written entirely in JavaScript. WeTTY uses websockets rather than Ajax and hence better response time.

Open your browser on http://yourserver:3000/wetty and you will prompted to login. Or go to http://yourserver:3000/wetty/ssh/<username> to specify the user beforehand.

If you run it as root it will launch /bin/login (where you can specify the user name), else it will launch ssh and connect by default to localhost. The SSH connection can be forced using the --force-ssh option.

If instead you wish to connect to a remote host you can specify the --ssh-host option, the SSH port using the --ssh-port option and the SSH user using the --ssh-user option.
