PuTTY terminal emulator
Introduction
HDXchange allows service engineers to log on using a
service account. Using this account, service engineers can
run commands which allows them to investigate problems
at operating system level.
PuTTY commands are divided into three groups.
• Clip commands
• Mac client (ldap) commands
• Miscellaneous commands
To use the commands, navigate from the root directory to
the directory where the command is located, then enter the
command. To avoid the need to enter long command
strings, use the ‘tab’ key to auto complete the required
directory name or command.
Command options
Where a command has options, they should be used with
the syntax as shown in the example below.
...~]$ sudo /etc/init.d/smb start
This command will force the Samba service to start.
Obtaining the utility
The PuTTY utility may be obtained from Intel corporation
and downloaded to a USB memory device, CD or DVD.
