Ssh Gui Client For Mac
I recently switched from administering my systems using Windows to OS X. I've found really nice alternatives to damn near everything I used previously, however I have not found a nice GUI editor (sometimes VIM just hurts my face for long scripting jobs) that can transfer files over SCP and that is sudo-aware.
WinSCP did all these things previously for me, Allowed me to log in, edit a file locally, and every time I save, it sends the file to the remote server. It also gave me the ability to sudo edit files, so I was able to edit files not owned by my primary user without having to sudo chown a million files just to change them back.

Have you tried Cyberduck?
I'm not sure if it allows for sudo integration as I don't use a Mac (this isn't, to my knowledge, something that is native to the SCP protocol; i suspect winSCP does it by initiating a separate shell session, sudo chowning the files, and chowning them back after the operation is complete).

Fugu will do SCP/SFTP in a fairly nice, albeit simple GUI. It will launch your local OS X editor to edit files on the server and then automatically sync the file to the remote server when you save it within the editor. I don't think Fugu fulfills your sudo requirement, however.

WinSCP port for Mac is the only solution for a while.http://portingteam.com/index.php/files/file/7089-winscp/
At this time, none of Mac SCP GUI clients doesn't do sudo.

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! - Quote:
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. - Quote:

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

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!

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?Quote:

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.
- JellyfiSSH is a simple bookmark manager for connecting to *NIX boxes like BSD/Linux etc via Telnet or SSH 1 or 2. You can set preferences for each bookmark including the terminal colours, fonts, window size, transparency and default login. Version 4 introduces grouping which allows you to collect similar bookmarks into groups for better management - especially for large numbers of bookmarks.
