Re: [MLUG] SSH Java client

[Nathan Odle <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Looks like an ancient version of mindterm.  The most recent ones, I'm 
fairly sure, include support for SSH2.  Mindterm also includes a nifty 
FTP->SCP bridge, not many people know about that.  If you've got a piece 
of software like the older Dreamweaver that only talks FTP, you can pipe 
it through Mindterm for secure file transfer to your server.

As an alternative when you find yourself in need of some SSH love, go 
download PuTTY:  http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

I really like PuTTY because it's installer-less; that is, you download 
an executable and that's what you run.  No installation, no dlls, 
nothing.  Very low-impact if you're a 'guest' on a machine but amazingly 
full-featured.  I believe it does leave behind a few small 
auto-generated configuration files in a user's Windows profile but 
that's not really a big deal.  It's also perfect to put on a keychain 
USB flash drive because it can run right from there.

In terms of file-transfer via 'scp' and the like, I've been using 
FileZilla for some time now and love it.  It's not lightweight like 
PuTTY, but it's got a nice interface and talks all types of secure file 
transfer protocols.
