Title: Amiga Terminal Emulator
Post by: Tumbleweed on April 03, 2024, 06:17:35 PM

Hi all,

I've been playing around with a Raspberry Pi 5 and how I can access it remotely using Putty from my PC. Was wondering is there a terminal program for the Amiga (OS 3.2) that I can use to do the same over a network?

Ive downloaded Term 4.8 from Aminet but looks like it only allows me to use the serial port in conjunction with a dial up modem. What I'm looking to do is remote access into the PI from my Amiga via my Lan. The Amiga has a x-Surf 3cc and Roadshow.

Is it possible?

There are many ways to do that, even from Shell.
The best way for me is DCTelnet, although I don't have the latest OS.
Works fine on 3.1 and 3.9.

Awesome. I'll give it a go. Much appreciated.

I gave it a go - no joy. The pi uses SSH2 , which I think was the issue. After a bit more digging around I found this on aminet:

Works a treat from Amiga Shell

You can install Telnet Daemon on the Pi (64bit version).
sudo apt install telnetd-ssl
