They also have rpms for RedHat (although I can't find any for RedHat 6.2. I still have some copies around myself). You could also consider commercial software such as F-Secure SSH from Datafellows. We have a number of licenses for F-Secure SSH and it is fairly robust.
The maintainer of Teraterm SSH is Robert O'Callahan, contact details are at http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~roc/. He will be able to tell you if anyone is working on SSH2 support. Teraterm SSL's page is at http://www.infoscience.co.jp/eng/products/ssltterm/index.html, together with contact details. The change log there indicates the last change to Teraterm SSL was over three years ago. Not encouraging. All these pages are linked from the Teraterm Home Page at http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA002416/teraterm.html. Also, as it is only a matter of time before Red Hat drop support for version 6.2, you might consider upgrading to 7.2. This comes with openssh built in. - John Airey Internet systems support officer, ITCSD, Royal National Institute for the Blind, Bakewell Road, Peterborough PE2 6XU, Tel.: +44 (0) 1733 375299 Fax: +44 (0) 1733 370848 [EMAIL PROTECTED] More people die each day of AIDS than died in the terrorist attacks on September 11th 2001. - NOTICE: The information contained in this email and any attachments is confidential and may be legally privileged.
