There's a field at <main window> -> Connection -> SSH for "Remote command";
that might be useful for things like "echo appname | sh" (no quotes). Not a
good solution for end users, but OK for fooling around.

Well heck. The "Welcome to Knoppix" line is printed when login is
successful, so username/password are OK. Past that, geez. Um, is anything
useful printed in /var/log/messages or the application's log file? Is the
app listed in /etc/shells? How about making a script that contains
,--
| #! /bin/sh
| exec that_app
'--
and set it as the shell? (Take the stuff out of ~fpacuser/.profile if
there's any.) My hope in this case is that the app doesn't like the
environment /sbin/sshd sets up for it, and maybe /bin/sh would be more to
its liking.
