mosh client plugin : Royal Apps

mosh is a UDP based method to connect like ssh on a server. This helps with mobile connection to reconnect to the same connection when on road or in train and you loose the connection.

It is configured server side and integrated with SSH.

On Windows there is a Chrome plugin or Cygwin client to use it. For UNIX like systems there is a nativ mosh client.

Would be nice to have such a plugin integrated with RoyalTS

Hi Dominik!

Our terminal based connections are using 3rd party components (rebex or putty). In case there's a PuTTY fork which supports mosh, you can try this approach to integrate it:

Alternatively you could try to integrate Cygwin using the external application connection:

If rebex implements support for mosh, we will, of course, light it up in Royal TS as well.

Stefan

Hi,

How would you solve this on Royal TSX? (on Mac).

I see that there is a "Custom SSH Path" option under the "Terminal" plugin settings. I would assume it would work if I pointed that path to the mosh client binary. However, that setting is global, and would affect all SSH connections.

How would one for a single connection enable the use of mosh? (if at all possible).

Hi Joachim,

may I kindly ask you to put your question/feature request in the macOS section of our forums? It will be easier to handle/track for us.

Thanks,
Stefan
