strange question

strange question

[Deedra Waters]

This is probably the wrong list to ask this, and not really sure where to
ask, but....

I'm going out of town for a week and the only computer I'll have access to
is a windows machine, does anyone know of an ssh client that would work
well with speech for windows so I can access my home computer?
if you do please write me off list so I don't end up dragging this topic
out on the list.

I would take it off list, but this is a question that has come up before
and thus it makes sense that others would want to know. Several people I
know use TeraTerm. I have friends who use this with Jaws, and with Window
Bridge. And it has SSH ability. I don't know where you get it, but perhaps
someone else will answer that question shortly.

Hi,

Go to

http://www.qps.com

Download the trial version of the QVT package/can't remember what the
whole thing is called.

However, there is a program in there called QVT Term I capitalized these
but don't think they actually are.

qvtterm is a much better telnet client that once you can establish a
connection via someone elses Internet Connection, you can just telnet to
your account by just typing:

c name of your provider

Then you just login as needed.

I use this at work to telnet out of our network and works great!  You can
also save off the screen and do some cutting and pasting with it.  There
is an upload and download feature which I haven't been able to use but may
be because of the network.

Otherwise, you can use the telnet client already available in Windows but
it's not the best.

BTW, I am a former Tampa resident.  Still own a small home in Tampa and
sure want to go back.  I moved to Alexandria, VA in 1989 for work.
Presently work for Verizon Communications so maybe can get a transfer
someday.

Good luck!

Ooops, that wasn't intended for the list!

Hmm, sorry, Amanda. She's accessing her home computer for mail.

You got caught by a very common kind of thing we see all the time on linux 
lists. You're assuming the world defined in Windows terms. Please don't 
take offense at my saying this, because it's not meant that way.

Hi, Deedra:

I'm currently looking at several Windows SSH clients on behalf of ACB. 
I'll advise here when I have a sense about their accessibility.

Re: strange question

Hi, Deedra:

I have just send the speakup list a copy of my just concluded evaluation 
of ssh clients for Windows. Now, I want to answer your note more directly:

Regretably, there seem to be no good Windows clients for remote console 
access over SSH. But, there are several excellent DOS command line 
clients. So, if the computer you will have access to can provide you 
access to DOS in a way that works for you, get the Win32 download from:

	http://www.ssh.com

and install the command line functions and paths. The access you get 
should be excellent for simple command line tasks. Access to utilities 
like Pine may be more problematic, as there are cursor tracking issues 
involved. Maybe it will be OK. I did not test Pine.

PS: In the course of looking around I installed the cygwin utilities. 
These are absolutely wonderful. They are also quite up to date. I now have 
a bash 2.05 and a lynx 2.8.4 with ssl support that run as PC Console 
applications under Windows. Very cool.

PSS: Makes me think that trplayer may be portable to Win environments.

Help with url.

[Thomas Ward]

Hi, list. Someone I know asked me where he can download Bill's Red Hat
distribution with speakup built in or the 2.4.3.12 kernel with Speakup, and
somehow I've lost the correct url. Can someone please give me the correct
site to download the files for my friend. Thanks.

Re: Help with url.

[Kirk Reiser]

I am not sure just how far through the process he is but, Bill has
been moving the redhat installation disks and all back over to
linux-speakup.org.  You should be able to get at least a portion of
the redhat stuff for 7.2 therefore from
ftp://linux-speakup.org/pub/linux/speakup/disks/redhat/7.2/.
