Note that this is not secure against an active attack where a trojan
copy of MindTerm, or a fake version of chiark's public key, is
introduced. However, it will defend against passive
password-sniffing. If you need protection from active attacks, carry
to your trusted remote terminal a trusted copy of an SSH client with a
trusted copy of chiark's public key.
This is of course available only to authorised users of
chiark. If you do not know that you are authorised then you are
not.
