PuTTY is good and better than TeraTerm and it supports ssh1 and ssh2.
Brian Moore said the following on 10/1/2008 9:00 AM:
Greetings. ssh is basically telnet with security so the username and
password are not sent in clear text over the wire. IN theory, your
entire session is encripted. Terra term pro is a free ssh client. NOt
the best, I actually really like securecrt but it is a hundred bucks
last time I checked.

How does ssh work?
Is that a network connection or some other protocal?
I know just enough about networking to be very dangerous 'grin'.
I can get all our machines talkin and our printers working, and that's
about as far as I've gone.

Hi. I have done something like this. By default, the image for
linux cd has an ssh server which starts up when the cd is booted. I
have restored machines by booting from the image for linux cd and
using terraterm pro to ssh into the machine and been able to restore
with all the options that way.
The drive designations are a little difficult to get used to but it
does work and is an option if you have more than one computer.

Sure, and I'll make it public to help others.
Image for windows backs up both in windows and dos, but only
restores in dos.
Much as some would have us believe dos is dead, for this kind of
software, it is not, although a small linux kernel is popular in
some software.
But this all happens under the hood so you generally don't have to
mess with it unless you want to.
But I have made many bootable cds and dvds, backed up to hard-disks,
and external drives, and this thing will also do networked drives
and such though i haven't done it yet.
Since my spanking new 3 gig core duo powerhose doesn't have a serial
port onboard, I have had to resort to the command line and booting
with a floppy to restore images off another partition with no
speech, and it's quicker than doing a dvd or cd.
There are some cases where the boot image that is on your back-up
set doesn't have the right driver for some of the new sata burners,
and you might have to do some mods, but for the most part, you
should be good to go by just running the software and it makes
bootable media by default.
Then if you need to just boot your system and feed it disks when it
asks for them, I think it asks for the last disk first, and then
spits it out and asks for the first one, and you'll know because if
you didn't give it the right disk it'll spit it out and not accept
it till you give it the right one.
I've done custom boot disk integrating vocal-eyes and running custom
drivers to boot usb burners and such too.
So you can get a simple or complex as you want to be with it.
There's lots of docs on the site and they mostly decrypt ok, but pdf
is a pain in the butt no matter how you slice it.
But tech support isn't bad the few times I've asked them a question.
We really need speech to get access to more low level functions, for
sys prep oriented tasks.
On new machines that don't have serial support, and no speech
drivers for usb at that level or sound card support, it makes it
challenging.
You can always do an unattended windows install, but this doesn't
cover custom partitioning, and testing.
Guess I'm going to have to bite the bullet and learn a little linux
hacking.
Because we don't really have true accessibility if we only have
access to the top levels of the os.
maybe gw could be persuaded to help out some in this regard, a small
linux distro with some generic sound card driver support, even if it
was for popular generic usb devices like the edirol ua1 because the
terabyte software works with dos windows and linux.
This would give us a completely controlable way to interact with our
backup software.
How bout it guys, any interest?
This is important since vocal-eyes is becoming no longer an option
on new machines.
it'd be imensely helpful to get a talking command prompt just to
know where my drive letters were in dos, or to execute a command to
partition or format a new drive, or even clean out a virus.

Hi Chris. I have Image for Windows/DOS here. Have you been able
to make a
backup image on CD that you can restore automatically with a batch
file or
something like that? I'd really like to know how this is done and
would
appreciate any hints or help you can give me.
Thanks.
