Ssh protocol on root

Hi All,

I’m doing an application to make data aquisition and I need to access another
machine via ssh. Does Root have any kind of class to do it? I saw TSocket class but it seems to be very abstract and don’t know if it is what I need. Have you tried something similar before?

cheers

Hi,

now we don’t have a ROOT ssh access class or TSSLSocket. If you need to go via ssh and want to use the ROOT TSocket and TServerSocket classes you should use ssh tunneling. This is easy to setup:

ssh -N -l :localhost: <remote_machine>

Cheers, Fons.
