I like Bitvise for the server side port forwarding abilities. Awesome that you can force port forwarding from the server side.

How is that different from Putty?

Putty is only client side. Bitvise server I can force port forwarding on any client that connects or per username. Can also pre-configure SFTP mappings on the server side. So if I'm away from my laptop and using a different computer I just have to login and get all my port forward and SFTP mappings without manually configuring them on the client side.

@dafyre Really? I just paid about 60 bucks for annual maintenance. Seems to be cheaper than the pro version of mobaxterm.

Haven't looked at the pro version but what do you get extra that's useful?

dafyre

@Ambarishrh Yeah, that was it.

No annual renewal for the MobaXTerm. Just renewals for major version upgrades.

For Free vs Pro see : http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/download.html

I am liking the look of mobaxterm. Pretty neat tool.

I bought MobaXterm before I'd heard about RoyalTS. That's another one that looks pretty good.

RoyalTS looks pretty good too.

Wow this thing does look pretty awesome. I gotta give it a try. Huge 100MB+ download for a management tool. Must be a ton of features in it.

@quicky2g Yeah, there are. It's way slick. A little bit of a learning curve if you're not used to the way it does things, but well worth a good look.

Bringing this one back. Are there any programs that will color code, similar to the way notepad++ or the code blocks on ML will?

Colour code inside of SSH?

How do you mean? That would be very difficult I would think.

scottalanmiller

VIM will do that.

Like command words are color coded?

coliver

Right, but I think he means at the SSH client level?

Donahue

Is that even a thing? Maybe I am just wishing for rainbows and unicorns.

Wouldn't the color schemes need to be setup on the remote side?

That's part of the shell. I don't know if CMD or PowerShell support that. BASH does. If you install BASH you should have that.

Correct. So you need a colour scheme supporting shell installed on Windows. SSH just shows whatever it connects to, the colours aren't from SSH.

That's going to be a program to program thing. As @scottalanmiller VIM will, ls will as well (I always be sure to have `alias ls="ls --color=auto")
