  That was the first solution I came across when I required something
 similar a few months back.
  I used it to allow people to change passwords on an internal CVS
 server.  (No logins were allowed to the box, and this was all on a
 LAN).

  It seemed to work as advertised, and as it was used only on a LAN with
 mostly trusted users I was happy enough with using it over SSL.
