There are free/open-source ssh utilities for windows, like putty.

ssh is not an option for us. There is no ssh client built into Windows.

Have you tried ssh? I use it exclusively. It is easy to setup to use
without
passwords....
Filer:
secureadmin setup ssh
(answer questions, usually leaving defaults is fine)
If you would like, also setup ssl:
secureadmin setup ssl
(answer questions, defaults are probably not good)
secureadmin enable all
(this turns on ssh1, ssh2 and ssl-> filerview will now work via ssl)
On your unix/linux client, setup all your keys:
ssh-keygen -t dsa -N ''
ssh-keygen -t rsa -N ''
ssh-keygen -t rsa1 -N ''
Go to your home directory.
cat *.pub >> /tmp/my.pub
Mount the root of the filer. go to the etc directory.
mkdir -p sshd/root/.ssh
cd sshd/root/.ssh
cp /tmp/my.pub authorized_keys
chmod 600 authorized_keys
chown root authorized_keys
now you should be able to:
ssh root@filer date
and it should give you the date. If this is the first time running ssh
to
the filer, it will ask to confirm/create an entry in your
~.ssh/known_hosts
file.
