Teraterm pro seems to be the best on Windows for this, but speakup under
Linux is far better. You could certainly devote 30g or so from your
existing disk by shrinking the partition and have a dual boot Windows
Linux system, but teraterm pro is pretty good if you have to stick to
windows.

Guys,
I've got a Linux server which I need to be able to edit a few
configuration
files on via SSH. Yeah, I probably could try to look up a way to download
the files to my computer locally, open them in Notepad, edit them, then
reupload them to the server as the modified versions, but then you stand a
chance of ownerships getting kurfunctified, and worse, permissions going
screw on me, thus making me have to chmod everything back to normal. What
a
pain in the behaunkis, especially if I don't know the permissions and
owner
to start with. The problem I'm having is, whether I use Putty, or any
other
SSH terminal client I've so far found, everything works fine. I can use
the mouse pointer or the W E cursor all day long to read the terminal
window
in detail, but as soon as I go into nano, or pico, or God forbid, vi/vim,
things start getting kind a weird. As I arrow in all four directions
around
the file, I find that what is being read isn't quite normally where my
actual cursor is located. Usually the cursor will be either a line above
or
below, or a character before or after. It's quite inconsistent what it
does, so I can't exactly give you a definite pattern. I've been kind of
learning to deal with it, but it's at the point now, where it is becoming
incredibly annoying, and I do mean, incredibly! Obviously, this means, if
I'm not extra extra careful, I'll wind up either deleting something I
don't
mean to, uncommenting things I don't need/want to, inserting things where
they don't belong, or worst case, totally booger bugging up the file to
the
point where I run whatever is attached to the configuration, and garbage
in,
garbage out, bad data in, puke comes out. So, is there really an easy way
to consistently via SSH use a text editer to edit conf files? If not,
then
I'm really screwed, I guess, mainly because I don't have the hardware
resources right now to run a full fledged Linux system, and I'm neither at
a
position, unfortunately, where I can reliably run a virtual machine
either.
Even if I could, the server I need to access isn't on my localhost, so I'd
have to SSH in anyway, one way or another.
Any help is profusely! appreciated.
Chris.
