   It works pretty well so far.  If anyone wants to see it in action, create an   
   account on my BBS (bbs.thepotogold.net:4888) and then go here:     
   ttps://api.thepotogold.net/UserCheck?u=&pw= It   
   will return true if you entered the right info and false if you didn't.   
      
   As for testing your version, I'd more than happy to test it out with you.   
      
    g0> for them.  I think I also have an undocumented variation of the -auth   
    g0> command that accepts a SHA512 hash too if you want to avoid passing   
    g0> cleartext command lines.   
      
   I'm only passing unecrypted values between the API and the bbs (both on the   
   same system), so I'm not as worried about clear text.  The API is using SSL,   
   so it's encrypted right from the user's browser that may be using it.   
      
    g0> I did carve out a /mysapi/ endpoint on the webserver for the REST side   
    g0> but there isn't a command to validate a password (yet).   
      
   Interesting.  Is that there now or is it in development?
