Bitvise SSH Client incorporates one of the most advanced SFTP file transfer clients, supporting:

• automatic resuming, text file awareness, recursive subdirectory transfers;
• powerful, advanced transfer list management;
• verified-integrity resume with servers that support SFTP v6 check-file and check-file-blocks;
• directory mirroring with servers that support SFTP v6 check-file and check-file-blocks;
• high speed - in tens or hundreds of MB/s with Bitvise SSH Server, network and disk speed permitting;
• fast responsiveness to user input even when in the middle of multiple file transfers.

Bitvise SSH Client also incorporates an advanced, scriptable command-line SFTP client.

Bitvise SSH Client provides integrated access to the SSH server's console, either via VT-100 and xterm protocols supported by most SSH servers on any platform, or via the enhanced bvterm protocol supported by Bitvise SSH Server:

• all terminal emulation is done in a regular Windows console, using standard Windows fonts, supporting standard settings for Windows consoles;
• UTF support with VT-100 and xterm, Unicode support with bvterm (full Unicode support on NT-series Windows platforms);
• full color support with xterm and bvterm;
• support for large screen buffers, all key combinations including Alt-keys and accurate console rendering with bvterm (fully accurate on NT-series Windows platforms).

Bitvise SSH Client also incorporates a command line terminal emulation client, stermc, as well as a command-line remote execution client (sexec).

When using Bitvise SSH Client to connect to a GSSAPI-enabled SSH server in the same or a trusted Windows domain, you can let Kerberos 5 (or on older platforms, NTLM) perform the server as well as user authentication for you. No manual host key verification; no management of user passwords and public keys. Just tell the SSH client which server in the domain to connect to, and if that server is Bitvise SSH Server (WinSSHD) or another server with compatible support for GSSAPI, the two programs will authenticate and establish a secure connection automatically.

Bitvise SSH Client is a powerful SSH2 port forwarding client with many features, including:

• Dynamic tunneling via integrated proxy supporting SOCKS4, SOCKS4A, SOCKS5 and HTTP CONNECT proxy tunneling protocols. Configure your applications to connect to target hosts through the SSH Client's proxy, and no manual tunneling rules need be configured.

  How to set up programs for dynamic tunneling: Firefox, IE; with these settings in Bitvise SSH Client.

• Port forwarding settings can be saved to and loaded from a profile. One can maintain multiple complex tunneling configurations without having to manually enter parameters before each session.

• Bitvise SSH Client minimizes its presence by displaying only a system tray icon when running in the background. If an error is encountered while the program is minimized, the icon reflects that.

• Server-side forwarding: with Bitvise SSH Server and Client, a server and multiple clients can be set up so that all port forwarding rules are configured centrally at the server, without requiring any client-side setting updates. The SSH clients only need to be configured once, and port forwarding rules can easily be changed when necessary.

• Command-line parameters are supported. Using command-line automation, a port forwarding session can be started from a link in the Startup menu without requiring any user interaction whatsoever. Help with the command-line parameters can be found in the SSH client log area when it is first started, or by executing 'BvSsh /?' from a command prompt.

• After an SSH session is established, any external application can be launched automatically.

• If an SSH session is interrupted, Bitvise SSH Client can automatically reconnect to the server.

Bitvise SSH Client also incorporates an advanced, scriptable command-line tunneling client.

Run 'BvSsh -?' for a list of command-line parameters providing flexibility to:

• make Bitvise SSH Client load a profile and connect immediately on startup and exit on disconnect using the -profile, -loginOnStartup and -exitOnLogout parameters;

• make Bitvise SSH Client hide portions of its user interface (main window, authentication messages, access to SSH features) using the -hide and -menu parameters;

• run Bitvise SSH Client from removable media and prevent it from making any changes to the Windows registry - and yet use public key authentication and verify host keys using the -noRegistry, -keypairFile and -hostKeyFile parameters;

and more.

Additionally, when the graphical Bitvise SSH Client is running, you can use the command line utility BvSshCtrl to programmatically cause the client to log in, log out, or exit. Run 'BvSshCtrl' for help.

Bitvise SSH Client (Tunnelier) supports command-line parameters that control how it uses the Windows registry (the -noRegistry and -baseRegistry parameters). This can be used when control over registry usage is required.

The latest versions of our SSH Client additionally support storing host key information and client authentication keypairs in an SSH Client profile. This means that you can copy the contents of the SSH Client installation directory to a USB key, insert the USB key into another computer, and run the graphical SSH Client as follows:

This means that you can copy the contents of the SSH Client installation directory to a USB key, insert the USB key into another computer, and run the graphical SSH Client as follows:

BvSsh -noRegistry -profile=U:Profile.bscp

This will tell the Client to not use the Windows registry, and to connect exclusively using the host and keypair information you have saved into Profile.bscp.

For more information about the supported command line parameters, run the graphical SSH Client as follows:

BvSsh -?

Bitvise SSH Client further includes command line clients – sftpc, sexec, stermc, and stnlc – which also support the -noRegistry and -profile parameters. These command line clients are frequently used unattended, but can also be used interactively. For more information, check Using Bitvise SSH Client Unattended.

Bitvise SSH Client incorporates sftpc, an advanced command-line SFTP client which supports:

• queued background transfers so you can continue browsing directories while a file downloads ('get * -bg');
• powerful command-line parameters for automated scripted transfers launched from a batch file or an external program;
• verified-integrity resume with servers that support SFTP v6 check-file and check-file-blocks;
• automatic text file conversion when transferring files between platforms (the 'type' command);
• wildcards - the * and ? wildcard characters can match more than one file;
• recursive transfers - a simple 'get * -s' downloads all files and subdirectories;
• resume support - 'get file.txt -r' resumes a previously downloaded file if it already exists;
• high speed - in the tens of MB/s with Bitvise SSH Server, network and disk speed permitting.

Additional information:

• Usage: after installing Bitvise SSH Client, get this help by executing 'sftpc -?'

• Command list: after installing Bitvise SSH Client, get this help by connecting to a server using sftpc, then execute 'help' and 'help '

• The 'log' utility can be used with sftpc to store the output of each individual SFTP session in a separate, uniquely named log file for auditing.

• The 'retry' utility can be used with sftpc to automatically repeat transfer attempts after specific types of failures.

Bitvise SSH Client incorporates sexec, a scriptable command-line remote execution client which can be used to securely execute programs on remote machines from a batch file. The batch file can perform actions based on the exit code reported from the remote program, and can capture the remote program's output for processing by simple redirection of sexec output.

Another command-line program included with Bitvise SSH Client, stermc, conveniently opens an SSH terminal emulation session with xterm, VT-100 and bvterm support in the same Command Prompt window it is started from. If you SSH from computer A to computer B running Bitvise SSH Server, and you also have Bitvise SSH Client installed on computer B, you can use stermc to conveniently establish an onward SSH terminal session to computer C.

All Bitvise command-line clients support all authentication methods supported by Bitvise SSH Client, can load settings from a profile configured in the graphical client, work with the same user keypair and host key database as the graphical client, can connect through a SOCKS or HTTP CONNECT proxy, and support a common set of command-line parameters controlling most aspects of establishing an SSH connection.

Bitvise SSH Client incorporates stnlc, a scriptable command line port forwarding client with support for static port forwarding rules, dynamic SOCKS-based tunneling, as well as the FTP-to-SFTP bridge.

For more information about using this client, run 'stnlc -h'.

Bitvise SSH Client incorporates an FTP-to-SFTP bridge which performs translation between the FTP and SFTP protocols, allowing any FTP client application to connect securely to an SFTP server through Bitvise SSH Client. Both active mode and passive mode FTP data connections are supported, as well as restarted transfers, directory listings and other features. All FTP clients should be able to list directories and transfer files across Bitvise SSH Client's FTP-to-SFTP bridge, including integrated clients in applications such as DreamWeaver, GUI clients such as BulletProof FTP, and command line clients such as the default ftp.exe client accompanying Windows. If an FTP client you use fails to work with Bitvise SSH Client's FTP-to-SFTP bridge, let us know.

Ssh Tools For Mac

See Accessing an SFTP Server with an FTP Client for more information about the FTP bridge.

Logging in to the HPCC Clusters using Windows

If you are connecting to the HPCC Linux clusters from the wired TTU network or the TTUnet wireless network, or if you are connected from off-campus through the TTU Global Protect VPN client, then you are considered to be 'on campus'. Connections made from TTUHSC, the TTUguest wireless network or any other off campus site not in this list are treated as 'off campus'. For off-campus connections, follow the procedures outlined below and then navigate to the off-campus instructions for the SSH gateway at the end of this page.

Getting an SSH client

For users to connect to the HPCC Linux cluster systems they need a Secure Shell (SSH) client. Windows provides an SSH client through its PowerShell window or Command Prompt windows but most Windows users prefer to use one of the following SSH Windows applications. Other available options for plain-text terminals include Termius, which is available for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android.

• Plain-text-only terminal applications:
  • Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) - Available on Windows 10 only
    • Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a lightweight Linux client available as an add-in to the Windows 10 operating system.
    • It is turned off by default. To enable it please follow these directions from Microsoft.
    • Once installed, you can continue connecting to our Linux clusters using the 'Logging in to the Linux Clusters using Linux/Mac' section below.
  • PuTTY - Available for all version of Windows
    • PuTTY is a lightweight SSH client developed by Simon Tatham.
    • PuTTY can be downloaded (for free) from the PuTTY Website.
• X11 graphics-enabled applications:
  • MobaXterm is an enhanced terminal application for Windows with X11 server, tabbed SSH client, network tools and more. If you are needing to display X applications from the HPCC system, MobaXterm makes it easier since it does not require additional programs to provide X11 forwarding.

Connecting to HPCC Resources via SSH on Windows

Once you have obtained and installed a suitable SSH client on Windows, please follow the instructions below to make a connection:

• Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) - Available on Windows 10 only
  • Because this method will install a lightweight version of Linux on your system, you can continue connecting to our Linux clusters using the 'Logging in to the Linux Clusters using Linux/Mac' section below, which includes sections on connecting from on campus and from off campus.
• PuTTY - Available for all version of Windows
  • For instructions on how to connect to the HPCC using PuTTY, please see the following page: 'Connecting to HPCC Systems using Putty on Windows', which includes sections on connecting from on campus and from off campus.
• MobaXterm has an extensive help page showing how to connect, including how to set up port forwarding in a way similar to PuTTY for off-campus connections. In general, these are similar to the instructions below.

Logging in to the Linux Clusters using Linux/Mac

If you are connecting to the Linux clusters from the wired TTU network or the TTUnet wireless network, or if you are connected from off-campus through the TTU Global Protect VPN client, then you are considered to be 'on campus'. Connections made from TTUHSC, the TTUguest wireless network or any other off campus site not in this list are treated as 'off campus'. For off-campus connections, follow the procedures outlined below and then navigate to the off-campus instructions for the SSH gateway at the end of this page.

On Macs, the built-in Terminal application can be used for plain-text connections, and XQuartz is the best option for X11 graphics-enabled usage. Linux systems generally include a terminal application and options to install X.org X11 support for graphics-enabled applications.

Other available options for plain-text terminals include Termius, which is available for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android.

Connecting from 'On Campus' using Linux/Mac

Open a new console/terminal and type in the following:

You will be prompted for your eraider password and once you have entered it you will be logged into Quanah or Hrothgar where you can begin submitting jobs.

Connecting from 'Off Campus' using Linux/Mac, WSL, or other terminal applications:

If you are connecting to the Linux clusters from the wired TTU network or the TTUnet wireless network, or if you are connected from off-campus through the TTU Global Protect VPN client, then you are considered to be 'on campus'. Connections made from TTUHSC, the TTUguest wireless network or any other off campus site not in this list are treated as 'off campus'. All external traffic to the HPCC servers must first flow through the SSH gateway. You will first need to connect to the SSH gateway and then connect to Quanah or Hrothgar from there. To do this you will need to first open a new console/terminal and type in the following:

You will be prompted for your eraider password, type it in then press enter. Once you have successfully entered your eraider password, the system will respond back with:

You will be prompted for your eraider password and once you have entered it you will be logged into the Quanah or Ivy login node where you can begin submitting jobs.

If you wish to connect in just one command line through the ssh gateway, please follow the instructions below. The format of this command depends on which version of SSL you are using.

If your setup is using other older versions of SSH, such as built into PuTTY or the current default WSL, connecting in one line from off-site requires the following set of flags:

With OpenSSH (used in Linux, Mac, and optionally installable in WSL), you can use the '-J' (jump) flag, as below:

In each case, you will have to enter your eRaider password twice (once for the SSH gateway and once for the cluster login node).

GUI-based SSH applications such as MobaXterm and Termius, include options to allow port forwarding to be set up to use the TTU SSH gateway for off-campus connections. For instructions on how to configure such settings, please consult the help instructions in the web sites for these programs.
