    Anyone know of one?.

    I know I can use putty and similar variants, I just want to be able to use one within a DOS window.

    Isn't that just for copying files though?. I want the functionality of putty itself rather than to just copy files across.

    Maybe I'm just missing something obvious.

    The download page says;

    SSHDOS is a DOS port of SSH, SCP, SFTP and Telnet clients. Needs a packet driver (or a PPP driver for dialup connection) only. There are two separate packages for SSH1 and for SSH2.

    mmm.....well have you googled "packet driver" :D

    I'll have a look after lunch and see if I can find anything for you!

    Seems to be that its a DOS program only, ie not supported under Windows, and that the packet driver is different for each different network card. And since this is a brand new laptop, I doubt they bother with a DOS driver for it.

    Looks like Putty or variants it is. Bah.
