windows teraterm ssh client connecting to openssh server
by David Mehler 20 Mar '18

20 Mar '18

Hello, Is anyone using teraterm on windows ssh to connect via public key authentication to an openssh server? If so, what did you have to do to get the key authentication working? The openssh doesn't appear to like the teraterm public key. Thanks. Dave.

Citrix agile working
by Kieran Little 19 Mar '18

19 Mar '18

Hi all, Here we're moving towards an even more agile working environment than we already had, giving most users chromebooks and working with windows applications through a citrix VDI environment. I've thought about trying the chromebook for a while now but am not sure how I could actually work in the citrix environment. I'm assuming NVDA would work because I think citrix has audio support, my only problem would be audio latency, and possibly an issue over JAWS licencing. I'm the only person who uses it so I got a JAWS professional licence, but we have a great number of VDI session hosts, so I'm not sure if it would get confused. Has anybody had any experience of working this way?
