Help Setting up SSH
I just installed RH5.4 on a sun server and I need to connect to it via SSH from a Windows server using a serial connection. Can anyone tell me how to configure SSH to access the server?
What do I use for hostname and port #. Do I also have to install SSH on the linux server? Thanks a lot for your help guys! |
you need to install ssh package on linux and start ssh service.
you can use putty to connect ssh server from windows machine. putty |
I believe, by default SSH package will be installed in RH 5.x system. You just want to start the service and enable it in chkconfig.
/etc/init.d/sshd startYou may use Putty to access the LINUX from WINDOWS. You will need to access the SSH through port 22 with the hostname or IP address of the linux server. |
Thanks Blue_print and Sem007.

Thank you guys I found the terminal emulator.

By serial connection are you using a dial up MODEM or connected by a serial cable.

You can check your RHEL system and verify you have the package installed by opening a command prompt and typing:
Code:
[root@server ~]# service sshd status Code:
[root@server ~]# rpm -qa | grep ssh Code:
[root@server ~]# service sshd start |
