Hi folks, Being a recent 'switcher', I am finding myself scrambling to find replacements for the fav tools I used before. My newest frustration is finding a good replacement for SecureCRT for the Mac. I need an SSH client that will save logon info for my most common servers that I SSH to, as well as keep the session alive during the times I have to step away from the desk. I have been using the SSH command line utility built into OSX but if I have to ignore an SSH session for five minutes while I attend to other matters, then the connection is dropped and I have to re-establish it. Any suggestions? TIA, Zeeple.

You don't need one. Just open a console window a use ssh from the command line.

Thanks for the reply. But, as mentioned in the previous post, I currently use the SSH utility via command line and I find it lacking in the features I want. It has no keepalive. Thus if I have to walk away from the computer for a bit when I return, whatever I was connected to is now dropped, and I have to re-establich the SSH session. Pain in the rear. A utility such as SecureCRT, for Windows computers only, has these features and more and is truly a superior SSH client. So I am hoping that other Mac users out there have the same requirements that I do, and have found a good utility somewhere that can fill this gap. Thanks!

Tried ssh -o TCPKeepAlive ?
I would be interested in finding out a better SSH client than Terminal. At the moment, I click-hold on the Terminal icon in the dock and click 'Connect to server.'. Slightly easier than using the command line method.

No!! I have not tried that. However, I am trying right now. Thanks again for the prompt response!

You can use a command alias or a simple script to save the login command for each of your favorite servers, if re-typing the commands gets too complicated. In its simplest form, this just means typing the command into a text file and making the file executable. OpenSSH is a pretty decent SSH client, and the BSD environment that surrounds it offers a rich variety of ways to streamline your workflow. If I had to guess, I'd say the lack of 'sophisticated' GUI SSH clients for OS X is because the power-users that would use them prefer to leverage the CLI instead.
Yeah, I haven't found a GUI ssh client I like as much as the command line. Color me geeky. Ditto to the above comments about making a quick shell script that just fires off the appropriate username/password, but that's a slight security risk, keeping your passwords in plain text like that. I set up secure keys between all my ssh2 connections, but you might not have that option.
Well, I think I would like to use the command line too, if only I can iron out these few wrinkles and make it quicker and easier to connect to my servers. TCPKeepAlive: I have tried this option but it is not working for me. I have tried it via command line as such: ssh -o TCPKeepAlive=yes server.domain.com as well as placing it in /etc/ssh_config under 'Host *' But either way, the session is still dropped after a bit of inactivity. Alias: I have also put a few aliases in /etc/profile that allow me to reduce this: ssh -l barney -o TCPKeepAlive=yes host.domain.com to this: host but this still leaves me needing to enter the password everytime. (I know a petty grievance) which is more typing than I'd like to have to do. Is there no way to pass that via config files or command line? Thanks! Zeeple

I understand, that with other ssh clients (especially the one you wrote about) your sessions do stay open? In other words - is this an issue only from your Mac?

It is possible to establish trust through host keys as well as authenticate through a personal ssh key. This second method is probably better. You would have to create a key with ssh-keygen, place it on the hosts in appropriate files etc, then use ssh-agent to keep it for you while your OS X session is open allowing password-less login onto other hosts. However, I actually think that having to enter a password when logging in is a good thing. A little inconvenience that actually improves security.
Yep, this is only a problem when I use the Mac. But I think it is not an inherent difference in Operating Systems so much as it was a feature of a really good SSH client that *happened* to be written for Windows. This is the client, btw, that I am referring to: http://www.vandyke.com/products/securecrt/
Except that I've never seen that problem on my Mac. my guess is that it happens to be something about the ssh server on the other end.
