How to Integrate TunnelMate Secure Shell & SSL Security for Third Party Solutions TunnelMate™ not only seamlessly integrates Secure Shell communications with products such as Powerlan's X Server product, WebTerm X™ and Powerlan's Terminal Emulator, WebTerm™, TunnelMate has fundamental differences from other Secure Shell clients because of its simplicity and ease of use and cost effectiveness. The primary design goal of TunnelMate is to provide "full-service" Secure Shell and SSL communications without requiring users to run a separate application as is necessary in most other security solutions.  TunnelMate may also be run as a stand-alone product,  providing a Secure Shell console and connections as you will see below.   TunnelMate works effortlessly with other 3rd party TCP/IP based  products. Below are some of the methods we have tested for you to show you  ways that you can incorporate TunnelMate with your networks. TunnelMate 2.2 installs these methods to connect for your convenience! Just click the icon in your Start Menu and your running over secure connections! How to connect over Microsoft File Sharing How to connect with E-mail How to connect with 3rd party X Servers How to connect with 3rd party Terminal Emulators How to launch a secure Microsoft Telnet Session Test Drive TunnelMate today!

Just some of the many ways that TunnelMate Security Client works flawlessly with:

How to connect over Microsoft Networks (NetBIOS) File Sharing by connecting to a Samba Server

1. Install TunnelMate
2. Go to start menu click "Run"
3. Type in ssh:///;localforward=139|*|139;consoleport=none;persist=yes;exec=\\<Host with SSH Running Samba> and click Ok.
   1. A window will pop once up asking for the host to connect to, it must have SSH running in order to work
   2. The host must be a Samba server. From there you can navigate to Network Neighborhood to get around like normal
   3. The shared files window will pop up and you can now drag and drop files as you normally do

How to connect over E-mail Clients

1. Install TunnelMate
2. Go to start menu click "Run"
3. Type in ssh:///;localforward=25|*|25;localforward=110|*|110;consoleport=none;persist=yes and click Ok.
4. launch any E-mail client you have by it's executable. (Exceed used as an example here.)
   1. Star Menu/Microsoft Office/Outlook
   2. Change your settings for the incoming and outgoing email to "Localhost"
   3. Connect

NOTE: Email will be secure internally on your network, but not to the outside world unless they two (Your destination) has SSH, then you can configure an SSH connection to them and do secure email over the internet.

How to connect with with 3rd party X Servers:

1. Install TunnelMate
2. launch any X Server you have by it's X server executable. (Exceed used as an example here.)
   1. C\Program Files\Hummingbird\Connectivity\7.10\Exceed\exceed.exe
3. Go to start menu click "Run"
4. Type in sshx///;startx="";consoleport=none and click Ok.

Presto! TunnelMate pops up and asks for your login info to the host running Secure Shell, and the X client you want  to run. Enter this information  in, click ok, and Viola! You now have an X Client over your X Server  running through a secure TunnelMate Secure Shell tunnel.

How to connect with 3rd party Terminal Emulators:
1. Via Run menu on Start menu:
ssh://ssh-host/;localforward=2323|ultimate-host|23;consoleport=none

2. 3rd party vendor's product:
Open up emulator, connect to "localhost" and the port you specify such as 2323 listed above.

How this works:
Enter the URL string in the Run menu as listed above, makes the connection to the SSH system for the tunnel, (Where ssh-host is in the URL), and sets the forwarding to the host you want to ultimately go to, (Where ultimate-host is listed in the URL).

Then since you now have created a "local connection" or "host" to connect to that is forwarding things, opening the 3rd party vendor's product and connecting to this "localhost" You're there!

Breakdown of the URL:
ssh://ssh-host/;localforward=2323|ultimate-host|23;consoleport=none

ssh://ssh-host/; tells the PC to open up an SSH connection, TM is brought into the picture because it has set itself up to handle these types of URLs. In this case "ssh-host" you would replace it with the with the name or IP address of the host that you have that is running the SSH protocol for the SSH portion of this URL.

localforward=2323|ultimate-host|23; Tells which host ultimately you want to go to, and which port on that host, you will replace "ultimate-host" with the name or IP address of the host you ultimately need to connect to.

consoleport=none
Tells TM not to launch the console so you do not clutter your desktop, but only have TM running, and your Terminal Emulator.

To launch a secure Telnet sessions with Microsoft's Telnet tool:

1. Install TunnelMate
2. Go to start menu click "Run"
3. Type in ssh:// and click Ok.

A Microsoft Windows Telnet window will pop up to the specified host you enter in, and you will be securely connected to your host. It's that effortless!
