Comments on: ksshmenu – A graphical SSH manager for KDE

I’ve been looking for something like this, but have a couple of issues.

One is that I get a ‘timeout waiting for konsole’ error dialog. Running ksshmenu from a terminal shows stdout gets the message “konsole: Unknown option ‘script’.” on the same error.

The second is how to handle ssh on a non-standard port.

The original sshmenu was pretty much the main thing keeping me in gnome. I’m grateful you took the time to do something for kde!

Thanks!

You should not have problems to download that file using decent browsers. You may also try this link although this shouldn't be necessary unless you use ancient versions of Internet Explorer.

Hi, I’d like to make a FreeBSD port of this, but need somewhere I can download the .tar.gz file. The download link above doesn’t have a file name, just a directory name, which makes it difficult. Is there somewhere else to download?

Thanks,
Steve

Thank you very much. That seems, however be a matter of taste. I do like the original method.
