Beta Forum for the new SCRT?

[toloughlin]

Dusting off the 'old account here.

Saw there was a *beta* going on -- and had to install it.

Where can we discuss the look? Comments etc?

Thanks!

Hey guys! Thanks!

The new session list icons -- look like shortcuts to RDP sessions.

As a sanity check, I had some people at work check it out & they thought they were for connections to Windows boxes.

I have -0- UI creativity, so I can't recommend an alternative look -- but perhaps something less "BSOD"

Hi Tom,

I found a couple feature requests I thought might be fitting.

I have added this thread to the following feature requests in our product enhancement database:

• Ability to customize Connect Dialog and session manager icons
  
  
• Add ability to change session icon for protocol type

Should a future release of SecureCRT include either feature, notification will be posted here.

If you prefer direct email notification, send an email to support@vandyke.com and include "Feature Request - Forum Thread #12235" in the subject line or use this form from the support page of our website.

i love the new themes, it really updates the look and feel.
I agree with the session icons looking like RDP icons.

Maybe we could have the generic network icons for routers/switches available?
And a generic linux ssh icon?

Hi,

Really love the new look! Now it doesn't feel like a ported windows application.

I noticed that if I maximise the window it only goes up to where the menubar would normally be (I have the menu bar set on auto hide).

I can manually change it but maximising it leaves a space.

What platform (and version) are you on?

Can you post a screen shot indicating what you're seeing?

Thanks!

Actually since going back over to my external monitor it hasn't happened - let me try again once back on my laptop and I'll let you know.

Hi,

I can't select multiple sessions to connect to on OSX anymore. Using beta 3.

Hi venturevoip,

Thanks for the report. It is a known issue and our development team is working on it. Should progress be made toward a resolution, or further information be needed to resolve the issue, I will post in this thread.

Hi venturevoip,

We have a new build that fixes the issue reported where you cannot multi-select sessions in SecureCRT/Mac.

So that I can make the new build available, please send an email to support@vandyke.com and include "Forum Thread #12235" in the subject line.

If contacting us through an email account other than the one used to create your download account, please advise us of the email address associated with your download account. If you need to create a download account, I will supply that info via email.

Hi,

I use the actual Beta Version 8.0.0 (x64 build 1055) which looks very nice!

We use a jumphost which I start via firwalled (tunneled) session for the ssh-connection to our routers.
Sometimes SCRT starts the jumphost session in the background and then it's finish, which means it stops connecting to the router.
To connect to a router I then have to close/restart SCRT.
Is this already an already known bug?
Just contact me if you need more information.

Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

Sometimes SCRT starts the jumphost session in the background and then it's finish, which means it stops connecting to the router.

What do you mean by "finish"? Is the port forwarding session disconnected?

Do you have any anti-idle options configured in the Terminal category of Session Options?

Also, please clarify your port forwarding setup. Hopefully, you are taking advantage of this feature introduced in v7.1.x:

Changes in SecureCRT 7.1 (Beta 1) -- February 26, 2013
------------------------------------------------------

New features:

• Added support for dependent sessions so that a connection can be made to a jump host or SSH gateway before the session is connected.

As long as the "jump server" is capable of dynamic port forwarding this *dependent session* functionality should work.

Hi Brenda,

What do you mean by "finish"? Is the port forwarding session disconnected?

It starts the session on the jump host and then it hangs. There is no further session possible until a restart of SCRT.

Anti-idle

Yes. But only "send string".

I use the option from 7.1 (you helped my in the past with this )

Best regards,
Robert
