Modernizing SSH client usage

    Better late than never. I finally got time to try out SecureCRT for a day.

    Unfortunately SecureCRT failed in review as well.

    1. Only uses it's own internal SSH agent. That's too difficult to control and I'm not flush with time to investigate securing it to a similar level to my current pageant + weasel + yubikey setup.
    2. Non detachable windows (clone to new session isnt great, screen / tmux could be integrated on fully controlled systems to work around this - but not ideal).

    I did like some of the options it provided though (including better copy+paste).

    @rcy026 Now that looks like it's ticking alot of boxes.

    Preliminarily it looks like they arent falling into many of the common mistakes I've seen so far.

    I've got an issue with it and snapping. But it's a C# project so I might see if I can tackle that myself.

    MobaXTerm in the past, WSL after for 3 years, WSL2 now since 6 months. Works amazingly great.
    On iPhone / iPad Pro i use Prompt.

    Termius/Solar Putty/CLI

    probably a dumb question but how many of these allow me to type shell command in one place and have it executed in all the windows?

    Is it intuitive or clunky?

    MobaXterm (multi-execution mode) and mRemoteNG (multi ssh) can.

    WinSSHTerm can also execute commands in multiple windows.

    It has a few quirks, but after years of trying different clients I always end up using it anyway.
    It's on github so if you make some improvements I'm sure the author would welcome them.

    Terminus is now Tabby:

    @sandanista Tabby looks nice but tabs are not detachable :(

    I personally just use CMD on Windows and xfce terminal on Linux. Don't need all the bells and whistles.

    This might end up winning.

    Windows Terminal 2.0's milestone date suggests a end of year release.

    Surprise that, there are a large number of windows users. No hate for windows, but according to my observation in real life, there are overwhelmingly macos users in the IT industry.

    In my country IT industry mostly using Windows, the one who use macos is a novel writer and socialite

    I just use iTerm + ohmyzsh with agnoster theme.

    MTPuTTY (MultiTab PuTTY) for SSH and WinSCP for S/FTP

    Not sure if this is the "best" but have been using them for ages and did not look back.

    That said, I just tried Tabby and it looks awesome :love:

    Congratulations, you probably make a decent living. But I don't think "IT industry" means what you think it means.

    Only Termius is native for Mac M1 atm

    Just set up a lot of configs under ~/.ssh/config with a bunch of aliases.

    So I just type ssh xxx each time.

  • kevertjekevertje Member

    Windows 11 will have tabbed support for the terminal emulator. combined with the WSL and the 'native' ssh client this is probably as best as you can get with true UNIX ssh
