6. Secure Shell - SSH Tool in ADS (Revision #7)

Aqua Data Studio includes a SSH Environment - an interactive Unix-like command line interface. SSH is used for remote login and secure communications with remote servers over unsecured networks. The SSH interface is integrated in the IDE and utilizes all Aqua Data Studio GUI capabilities such as customized tabs, search functions, keyboard mapping, docking framework and Shortcut Toolbar shortcuts.

Registering a Server

This is very similar to how database servers are registered. Once you have installed Aqua Data Studio you will need to register your servers before you get started. There are three methods of registering ssh servers, all of which launch the Register Server dialog

• You can navigate to the Main Application Menu to Server, then select Register SSH Server
• You can right-click in the Schema Browser to bring up the context menu and select Register SSH Server

All of these launch the Register SSH Server dialog, which lets you fill in the properties of the SSH server you are attempting to connect to.

The properties of any registered SSH server can be viewed and altered by right-clicking on a server in the Servers Browser and selecting "Properties."
