Vista Squad

Off I went today to visit one of my company’s customers with a view to identify an issue they have been having with their firewall.

No Hyper Terminal installed as standard in Windows Vista!

Hey Scott

 Just a reminder about Putty which is a pretty sweet tool for this sort of thing. http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ is the link
 

Hi Ray

Thanks for the link, not tried Putty before, but will give it a go.
