Working SSH the easy way |
Ok guys, I poured through MANY different threads on getting putty to help you tunnel SSH so you can connect to a remote mud.
I use it so I can get through my firewall at work so the IT guys don't cry about an unencrypted connection.
Get the latest version of putty from http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html.. Open a DOS prompt (Click Start, then Run and type command or cmd and click ok)
Navigate to where you saved putty and type the following:
putty -L 4000:dartmud.com:2525 -ssh wfrpg.mushpark.com -l username -pw password
A window opens up and you then open Zmud and have it connect to localhost port 4000.
The dartmud.com:2525 is the mud name and port.
The wfrpg.mushpark.com is the SSH tunnel you've set up.
TOO EASY |

I did all that word for word but get held up somehow when connecting with Zmud, it just doesn't connect and I know I've done everything else right, know what might be the problem here?
