IDEAS FROM SHANE KERR

  - Check size of strings to avoid smashing your stack
  - Use getopt() to allow passing of command-line options for user and
    password as well as the host id (probably should abort if host id
    is 0)
  - Precompute the base64 version once, not every send - the memory
    leak wouldn't have mattered then  :)
  - Remove the itimer stuff - why not just a loop with sleep() ???
  - More work to make it a proper daemon, such as ignoring SIGINT and
    SIGHUP, detaching from the session, and so on.
