    I downloaded the latest version of glTail and got an authentication failed error:

    cheetara:~/Desktop will$ ./gl_tail-0.05.rb
    Connecting to myserver...
    /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/net-ssh-1.1.2/lib/net/ssh/session.rb:143:in `initialize': will (Net::SSH::AuthenticationFailed)

    I am using key based authentication to my server so I had previously set the password to:

    :password => ''

    This worked in the old version but to get it to work I in the new version I had to change it to this:

    :password => nil
