lsh is argued to be more secure (and less feature rich) but that is
debatable. 

He says its a hassle if you need to SSH in but don't have the key but I
plan to only be able to login through my notebook.

He also suggests I look into opie for one-time-password technology.

A point I also brought up is that more complex authentication schemes
like credential and and authentication encryption can sometimes be
subject to buffer overflow or other types of malicious attacks.
