Re: [Blind-sysadmins] Win SCP was Re: TeraTerm

Scratch is way above my brain-grade, and Fedora expressly inhibits root from logging in by anything but su. This inhibition can be disabled, but it's just another hole in the Swiss cheese I'd prefer not to open. On Sun, 1 Nov 2015 09:23:02 -0500, you wrote:

Hi,

You can still ssh and sftp into root under debian and centos. I am not sure about artch and others but I know Ubuntu doe not even let you log in as root. You can also do this if you are building your own linux from scratch.

Just about every Unix-like system on which I have ever worked inhibits, prohibits, ssh to root.

Hi,

There are some causes like in certain work environments where you cannot have root access for security purposes.

Hi,

I use winscp for ewditing files but am wondering if anyone has gotten winscp to work when you need to have sudo before the file to edit it?

Yep, you can hook WinSCP up to use other editors like Ed Sharp, or just use the one it has built in. It probably works better for longer things than Teraterm and nano do. I did cobble together an interesting way to get files up there with Tt though. If you get the package lrzsz on a VPS or something, you can use SZ or RZ and then use the Z-modem option in transfer under the file menu to get the job done if one didn't have WinSCP or something around.

I'm surprised that kind of thing even ran over SSH though.

I have been using Win SCP and putty with NVDA with great success. I know this is a cobbled together solution, but I have found this to be very officient, and able to allow me to get the job done.

I think something broke after Jaws 12 or so. Teraterm wasn't bad with the simple modification I found on one of the Cavi archives on the net until you try to apply that to 13 and up, and it kind of falls apart. I think we probably have to find a different way to edit files on the remote machine though because we can't stay in Jaws 12 forever just for TT to work good.

That's what I do with TT now. I'm trying to get away from that mess. TT often loses cursor track. I'm noticing the same thing with PUTTY.

Go ahead and check out putty or secure CRT. Putty is free, Secure CRT is $99ish and has a jaws script that works with it. Putty is very good though, supports ssh and lots of other protocols including serial.
