Cannot connect to your VirtualBox or VMware from Token2Shell/MD? Here's a workaround!
Are you using "Internal Network" or "Host-only Networking" for your virtual machine and getting connection timeout errors? Try the following workaround.

The following summarizes new features and changes in version 10.11.0:
You can create multiple saved layouts and also have an option to automatically save the layout when you close Token2Shell/MD.
When you make a selection from Layout Freezer, Token2Shell/MD restores the server address, position and size of terminals. Connections are also re-established if they were active when the layout was saved.
chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com
" cipher method for OpenSSH.
Token2Shell/MD now also supports chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com
. When this method is selected for a session,
your setting for the MAC algorithms (ex. hmac-sha2-256-etm@openssh
) will be ignored as the data integration is checked through Poly1305.
Please note that many CPU's include support for dedicated AES encryption circuitry and as Token2Shell/MD makes use of encryption methods built into Windows (Windows.Security.Cryptography.Core),
you may not notice significant speed improvement when using chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com
over AES based cipher methods
(ex. aes128-ctr
). However, if your device or server doesn't have AES encryption hardware
(ex. ARM processors in Windows 10 Mobile devices), chacha20-poly1305@openssh.com
should give you better or similar performance
with less power consumption than AES (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7539).
Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) is becoming popular as it can achieve equivalent or higher level of security using less computing power than traditional methods (ex. RSA). OpenSSH and other poplar SSH servers support ECC based key exchange methods and host key types such as ECDH, ECDSA and Ed25519.
Token2Shell/MD now also supports ECC based methods that are fully compatible with OpenSSH. The following summarizes new features and changes in version 10.9.0:
ecdsa-sha2-nistp256, ecdsa-sha2-nistp384, ecdsa-sha2-nistp521, ssh-ed25519
Please note that Token2Shell/MD uses the same private/public key file format as OpenSSH. Thus if you already have private keys generated with ssh-keygen, you can simply copy them to Token2Shell/MD Home Folder (...\Token2Shell\ssh\keys) or import them via "Import" menu. You can also generate new private keys within Token2Shell/MD.
curve25519-sha256@libssh.org, ecdh-sha2-nistp256, ecdh-sha2-nistp384, ecdh-sha2-nistp521, diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256
Please note that Address Book entries have their own SSH related settings. Thus you need to update existing entries individually if you want to use the newly added key types and methods for the stored server settings.
Address Book entries in Token2Shell/MD correspond to plain XML text files under its Home Folder (...\Token2Shell\address.book). So if you're familiar with using a scripting language such as PowerShell, or have a text editor capable of opening multiple files and replacing a certain text on all of them, you should be able to update your Address Book entries more easily.
If your terminal output is not vertically aligned correctly even if you've selected a mono-spaced font, try setting this option off. After changing this option, you need to re-connect to the server as this option is applied only when a new session is started.
Be ready to show your portfolio or presentation without worrying about embarrassing browsing history or bookmarks! Let your coworkers or employees use their favorite web browser for their personal errands but let them be professional and efficient while on their job by providing them with a special web browser that brings consistent settings and user experience!
PkgdView Terminal also includes a rock-solid modern SSH client. Thus if your job involves using a web browser and/or text-based server programs, you can easily consolidate and simplify your workflow with PkgdView Terminal. You can even have your remote PDF files previewed and printed on a local printer over SSH or directly from websites.

ZModem/XModem can be handy as files are sent or received over the current connection without depending on additional daemons or background service software. You just need ZModem/XModem executables (ex. lrzsz) that are readily available for almost all Unix and Unix-like servers. They are also still widely used for embedded devices for updating firmware or retrieving log files.
All in all, Token2Shell/MD now got you covered! The following summarizes new features and changes in version 10.8.0:
Token2Shell/MD version 10.7.0 is now available. Along with bug fixes and minor enhancements, the new version now natively supports serial communication. The following summarizes new features and changes.
Please note that the serial communication support in the new version uses a different URL scheme name 'serial://' instead of 'com://' that we used in our other products. Hence, address book entries for serial devices are not compatible.
We decided to use a new scheme as the new serial device support in Token2Shell/MD is built around a port 'name' instead of a port 'number'. Such fundamental difference makes an address book entry incompatible. Thus we wanted to at least keep the address book entries from other programs intact by using a new scheme.
Token2Shell/MD version 10.6.0 is now live on Windows Store. The following summarizes new features and changes.
If you don't need to specify a port number with an IPv6 address, you can just enter its raw hexadecimal representation with colons. For example, when you want to enter an IPv6 address, '2001:0db8:0000:0000:0000:ff00:0042:8329', with a user ID, 'myid':
When you need to specify a port number, the address must be enclosed with brackets ('[' and ']'). For example, to append a port number 1234:
