Does RDM support port forwarding like secure CRT does. I saw an option to configure port forwarding when creating a SSH session but it does not have the functionality that secureCRT has.

Hi, We don't support native port forwarding, but we support SecureCRT as an addon, maybe you should give it a try.

From my personal experience Putty's port forwarding over ssh from a server that is NOT the ssh server is 1) confusing to configure correctly. 2) often has intermittent failures in the link.. causing you to have to reconnect to the ssh server. I know you might think that #2 must be some sort of networking issue but I used Putty for months and this occurred everyday and as soon as I went to SecureCRT it stopped. Vandyke used to have a seperate port forward link program that was the best.. they have integrated that technology into SecureCRT.

so, not so much a functional thing, but a reliability and ease of set up thing, correct?

Exactly, I think they offer a trial of secureCRT. Give it a shot. I think that the price is high but if you can convince your employer to pick up the tab like mine did its a great product.

well, I have a group of people using PuTTy, and it seems to be working fine, no compliants
as an alternative, I'm partial to Tunnelier, have you tried that? works very well especially if you are running their server software too edited by sbonilla on 1/6/2011

That would be cool. If the integration was better than the SecureCRT plugin I would be willing to switch. Try contacting the Devs? http://www.bitvise.com/tunnelier edited by amlucent on 1/6/2011

I'd love to see Tunnelier integration. At the very least, it will accept plenty of command line arguments. I'm not sure about making it embedded, I just don't think it will work that way.

Thank you for he command line, I`m pretty sure that we can do at least a basic integration. I will ask André (my colleague) if he can look at it when he finish the MySQL Add-on.
