Add an external SSH client

You can specify and store a command to connect to a Linux or Solaris host using SSH.

1. In the CollabNet Sites view where you have added a Lab Management site, right-click, and select Open external SSH client.
2. In the Add CollabNet Site window, select Add Site.
3. In the Open External RDP Client window, enter the command to connect to the client.
   
   For example, if you are on a Windows system and want to connect to a Linux host using the PuTTY application, enter a command in this format:

   putty.exe -ssh -P $PORT $USER@$HOST

   .
4. Select Prompt if you want this command to be displayed every time you try to open the client.
5. Click OK.
   Note: The command gets stored under Windows > preferences > CollabNet Lab Management.
