Simple tool is putty to access the server via putty.

You can download putty from internet.

Try putty. It is free and a very good ssh terminal for any unix platform including hpux.

It can be downloaded here:

In reference to last post, tectia's implementation of ssh is a little bit off when it comes to key based authentication. One of our business partners in the past (this is a hear-say not my personal experience) used an ssh client of some sort with tectia name attached to it, and the public-private key structure is not what was expected from a open source ssh implementation. This kept an ex-colleague scratching his head for a couple of months until somebody said they were not using open source implementation but instead tectia branded ssh.

To make the story short, PuTTY is the most widely used ssh client as far as I know and its features are impressive for an absolutely free to use in any way-shape or form software. If you have any problems, you will be able to get help quicker than any other ssh client.

Yes it lacks certain features like auto-logins (a.k.a. macros) and some other stuff maybe but among all other ssh clients I have used so far, open source and paid, I would not exchange PuTTY to any one of them. Last but not the least, no, I am not getting paid by Simon Tatham, author of PuTTY, or have relation to any entity profiting from this piece of software. These are all my personal, 2 cents worth, OPINION...

I agree with what Mel said. When we (finally) started looking a ssh / sshd, tectia's name came up. it can (at least now) use OPENssh-style keys, but it requires additional configuration to do it.

what tectia wants is for you to use their client and server. when implemented that way they integrate a bunch of other stuff as well, such as RSA SecureId for two-factor authentication.

if you're running the open source sshd on the server, PuTTY is the simple to get, set up and generally to configure........

just my 2 cents

A biased answer? Dump the windoze and run Linux on your desktop. Comes with SSH installed.

Advantage of Putty is that it is free, and no need to worry about moving to a different company as it can be downloaded anywhere.

The problem with Linux is that company provides Windows only for desk top.

I have a related question, what needs to be done on the HP-UX (11) server for ssh? How to start that up?

Re: HP UX server via ssh

Mel Burslan — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 16:57:12 GMT

@Rick

I wish it could be that easy. Let alone dumping windoze, I can not even dump the crummy internet explorer. Some intranet sites, especially where I report my timesheets to get paid, are designed such that, even they are javapased applets, they do not work with ffox. I have a second station running fedora 11 using the same KVM through a KVM switch but it is lacking copy and paste from windoze environment which most of the time I need.

Let us not forget the Outlook behemoth here. Last time I tried to setup evolution, I was disappointed. I am not sure about the current state of it though.

@Fred:

if you have the HP's version of openSSH installed, to start the sshd daemon, just execute:

/sbin/init.d/secsh start

simple enough ??

I guess it's not installed :) can't find that on the system. Where do I get it?

Shalom,

Binary attachments.

Perhaps better to post a link.

Putty is a good one.

Another good way to go Linux. It has an X windows server and is really ideal for accessing the Motif tools on HP-UX.
