CS 141 Homework Assignment #9


In class graded exercise   

  overview: we are going to download and install, configure
    and run a better telnet program
     I recommend you use this program,
      not windows telnet for the future.

If you did not complete this in class 7,
 alert the instructor before you work on this in class
  so he can make sure you are not using the work of a previous student
   at your station.

google.com search for: putty
    you should find a url like this:
    www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

     download
      windows xp
       putty.exe
        save on the C: drive in room A-215
         (only needs 444 kb)
dbl click putty.exe
 uncheck so we don't get a warning each time we run it.
  first screen
     select ssh (encrypted) or telnet
      hostname: unix01.sac.edu
      saved session: unix01
      click save
   click on keyboard
      set backspace to ^H
      set Fn keys to SCO
      click session
      click save
   dbl click on unix01

you get a security alert
 select yes to save the key
  so it can be checked each time you log into that site.

   putty has rounded upper corners whereas telnet has square corners.

  Anything you high light in putty goes to the windows buffer.
   right click to paste the windows buffer into putty.

  In putty,
     try typing in a cmd
      then high light it with the mouse (to save in buffer)
       then right click to run the same cmd again.

to get credit
     Type the id command
      and raise your hand
       so your work can be graded by the instructor.
