Hi Sampo,

the CGI does not need the ssh key.
start Retroshare-nogui in RPC mode. (-X)

How does the CGI find the ssh key generated in step 3?

I generated the ssh key without password. Perhaps worth mentioning in
your instructions.

Right now I can get to the index page, but clicking, e.g., status causes
a lot of Retroshare-nogui activity, but after about 3-4 seconds fails
with "Connection Interrupted/The document contains no data."
