Putty Installation

[swavijay]

Hi all,

I'm new to freebsd FreeBSD and would like to know if anyone has installed putty on freebsd FreeBSD. If so, can you please let me know the procedures for the same?

I have freebsd FreeBSD 8.2 with Gnome2.

Thanks,
-Vijay

But, there's no need to install anything, open a gnome-terminal and use ssh(1), telnet(1) or cu(1).

I'm trying to establish a serial connection. Putty provides serial connection but not sure how to do with Gnone terminal.

In that case I recommend using comms/minicom. It looks and works a lot like the old and popular Telix.
