Big bug
Well, we found a big problem in EasyTunnel that prevents users from properly connecting to an SSH server if the keys weren’t previously accepted…
We are working on an upgrade of EasyTunnel that will fix this problem. For now, users MUST do the following for EasyTunnel to work properly, otherwise it will only work for people that have already used plink or putty for a connection.
Here’s what you need to do ONCE for each connection:
- Open a command prompt by clicking on Start –> Run… write ‘cmd’ and press <enter>.
- Get to the path where plink is and type in the following: “plink.exe -ssh -P 443 server-ip”
- Accept the keys! by typing ‘y’ for yes… (before or after providing user/password)(this is what EasyTunnel doesn’t do for now…)
- Once connected, type “exit” and do so for every server you need to connect to. Close everything once completed.
Start EasyTunnel and everything should be fine unless you change the keys on the server!
