Barionett web access

[Philip Pedersen]

I don’t have a Barionet, but, looking at the manual, it doesn’t look like the web interface supports https. The only thing on the security page is setting a password.  

So, a password would be in the clear over the internet anytime you use it, as would any session with the web interface. That leaves the interface open to much greater opportunities for exploitation. 

I strongly recommend you go with an ssh solution or a vpn to an internal server.
