That's unusually paranoid. What's his beef? Just that it's open source? > Has anyone encounterd security issues with Putty beyond the Release 0.60? > I am looking for documented problems.

SSHTectia will sell you a commercial version of ssh which really doesn't do anything more than Putty does (other than have someone to sue). You could use RDP to connect to a Windows virtual desktop or Linux virtual desktop and use the included ssh (hope he doesn't know that that's open source too). I believe Hummingbird will sell you a version of their tools that are ssh-enabled. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
