SSH Client in NuSphere PhpED

PHP Editor SSH - why, you may ask? The goal of PHP IDE is to serve all of PHP developer's needs - including those that are not directly related to the task of writing PHP Code. PhpED is a unique PHP IDE because of its integrated terminal accounts allowing you to access the remote computers via telnet or Secure Shell (SSH) with out ever leaving the IDE. The expertise of NuSphere's development team goes far beyond the php debugger and advanced PHP Editor features - we are also experts in networking and remote file access solutions. PhpED's PHP IDE SSH account almost literally brings the security and the convenience of SSH to your finger tips.

The SSH Properties dialog will be launched and the setup is pretty straight forward. You will need to

Enter the Hostname or IP of the server
Enter the User name and Password
Most of the time you will accept the default values for the rest of the settings

You can create new SSH settings or modify the existing ones at the Keys tab of the accounts dialog
