Thread: Is there an SSH client for iPad that supports port fowarding?

Anyone know of an SSH client for the iPad that supports port forwarding? I Googled around but I'm not clear if any of the apps I came across support port forwarding the same way PuTTY does.

No idea really .. Did you find something already ?

Have you seen this one ?
iSSH Updated with Support for Multitasking and Port Forwarding | TheTechJournal.com

Zingersoft has updated iSSH with support for multitasking and port forwarding and the ability to keep connections open for up to 10 minutes in the background.

• Arbitrary port tunneling through SSH

What’s New In This Version:
• Support for multitasking and holding open connections for up to 10 minutes on devices that support multitasking.
• SSH tunnel support.


iSSH is a universal iPhone and iPad app, currently available for US$9.99 in the app store.

Not yet. iPad, iPhone and Droid seem to be more compatible with VPN, anyway.

I've seen that page. It says:

keep connections open for up to 10 minutes in the background.

These connections would need to stay open for several hours. Unless I'm missing something here, being disconnected every 10 minutes would suck.

Yep

Maybe the makers are happy about having 10 minutes of internet time now because it was disconnecting people every 5 minutes in their last version.
