Terminal Emulators

Whether you are needing an emulator to access our systems during training, or needing to access your own systems using the Telnet or SSH protocols, here are some freely available terminal emulators that work with OpenVMS.
TeraTerm Pro Web 3.1.3 supports the Telnet and SSH2 protocols. It includes a built-in web server that can accept commands via HTTP requests and return the results to the browser. It may be downloaded from PARSEC or from http://www.ayera.com/teraterm/.
PuTTY 0.6 is a free implementation of Telnet and SSH2 client for Windows and unix platforms. It may be downloaded from PARSEC or from http://www.putty.nl/.
SSH SecureShell supports SSH and is available from PARSEC or from www.ssh.com.
The free version of IVT supports Telnet. When purchased, SSH support and Kerberized Telnet is available. IVT may be downloaded from PARSEC or from the developer at home.planet.nl/~ruurdb/IVT.HTM.

C and Fortran Libraries

The Conan cgi script that allows access to OpenVMS help libraries also provides access to other types of libraries. Programmers may wish to use this interface to view the contents of the language support libraries for DEC C or DEC Fortran.
C Run-time Library - standard C header files
C LIB Library - C header files for OpenVMS library routines
C Starlet Library - C header files for OpenVMS system services
