Scott, thank you for adding that Mac to the list. Between the Mac addition and changing the SSH2 authentication type from "Password" (used on Bolt) to "Keyboard Interactive" (used on SH), the client now automatically connects without delay. I have run into some issues on SH, such as the new UPTIME and WHO commands, which do not fully work or at all (respectively). The RAR command is still missing. I'm still not entirely sure what to do with the "public_media" link, it doesn't work on Bolt or SH, and I don't know if the target is meant to be permanently gone. The new PS command works differently and that's causing a minor display issue. Can the PAR2 package get installed? The SH auto-logout isn't graceful. There could be other issues, but I haven't had the time to investigate further.
BTW, when the dust settles you guys should come up with a snazzy name for the new shell machine. "Bolt" has character, "SH" sounds like a disproving wind instrument assigned to a library. ;)
Vic, do you know what the status of FRM is and will FRM be updated to fully work on SH?
Casner, because to upgrade the client would cost $100 and that only buys one year. I accept donations. :) Yes, I know PuTTY is free, but to be completely honest, PuTTY sucks dead bunnies through a straw. From what I understand, KiTTY, based on an older version of PuTTY, is suppose to fix some PuTTY issues, such as the password, but I'm not convinced it's trustworthy.
