The Secure Shell is the standard solution to the problem that + PHP Shell tries to solve. SSH lets you login to a remote system in a + secure way where the traffic and password is encrypted at all + times. You can also upload and download files securely and make + encrypted TCP tunnels. + + If your host supports SSH then use it and forget about PHP Shell or + any other solution. + +* Telnet. This is the old way to obtain an interactive login on a + remote system. Unfortunately telnet is insecure since the password + and subsequent traffic are sent in clear text. SSH was developed + precisely to replace telnet. The advantage of telnet over PHP Shell + is that it gives you an interactive session. + +* See more alternatives at the Anyterm homepage: + + http://anyterm.org/compared.html + + Download ======== This was sent by the SourceForge.net collaborative development platform, the world's largest Open Source development site. ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
