Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is Ski?A. Ski is a response calculator designed for use with the S/Key authentication algorithm. For more information about S/Key, see the Wikipedia entry, or check out the RFC.
Q. What does the name "Ski" mean?
A. It's a phoenetic mangling of S/Key, the algorithm for which the application calculates responses.
Q. You know that's really lame, right?
A. Yup, but I'm not very creative. Seemed more clever than "S/Key Calculator".
Q. Why doesn't Ski do X?
A. I've tried to make Ski as complete as possible, but I can't think of everything. If there's a feature you'd really like to see added, by all means drop me a line at robert at blee dot org. I'll do my best to respond quickly. I may not add your feature, but if not, I'll try to explain why!
Q. I have a question that isn't addressed here. Who do I ask?
A. Again, drop me a line: robert at blee dot org. I'll do my best to respond quickly.
