Mainly, I've tested with Putty and an emulator called Costar.  The
problem we see is that the ssh server can be configured to kick off a
.bat file. In the .bat file we configure it to run commands like this:

Cd \ibm\uv
Bin\uv.exe (or bin\uvsh.exe)

This will log us into the UV account.  Once we are in there, terminal
emulation for simple universe commands like HELP don't work (regardless
of term type, vt100, console, adds, etc).  Our software uses commands
like PTERM CRMODE, which doesn't work. 

I don't think the issue is actually ssh.  On a windows universe server,
just opening up a cmd.exe window and running the above commands
duplicates the problem.

After talking with Rocket, it doesn't appear ssh on Windows (without
running the telnet service) will work.

I've never run an sshd service on Windows, but we do it all the time on
Linux.  We usually shut telnet down completely.  Terminal emulation
should
be identical between telnet and ssh.  What terminal emulator / ssh
client
are you using?

Subject: [U2] UV Windows SSH without telnet service

We have a user running on a Windows UniVerse server who has a security
requirement which forbids running any telnet services.  They want to use
ssh to connect and have installed bitvise winsshd.  It allows us to kick
of a uvsh.exe upon authentication.  We are able to login to our software
or the uv account fine.  But, once we are in, we are having serious
terminal emulation problems.  I haven't found a term type which will
work. vt100, console, ansi, etc all display incorrectly (CRLF looks like
LF).   Commands such as PTERM CRMODE do not work, etc.


Has anyone out there connected to a UniVerse windows server without the
telnet service via ssh?
