I have a chat client that needs to connect to a chat server in order
to function. This is for research use so I have access to an academic
server named Updraft. For this research, Updraft acts as a central
point where all data is accumulated. It would be real nice if I could
have all the chat client connect to the chat server that resides on
Updraft. I problem I see here is that Updraft uses SSH and the chat
clients use IO::Socket::INET. That means that first a user would have
to login to Updraft using SSH then the client program creates a socket
using IO::Socket::INET. That seems a bit strange. I'm looking for
ideas on how to resolve this issue. Is it even possible for this to
work?
