Alternative for Xshell.

Alternative for Xshell.

Do anyone knows an alternative for xshell? I have checked and the alternatives mentioned are putty, openssh etc. But I require it mainly for port forwarding and for that xshell works perfectly. Is there any way(apart from using wine) to install xshell in ubuntu precise?

Why would you want to use xshell in Ubuntu? The standard ssh client that comes with Ubuntu has all the port forwarding capabilities you probably need.

You can install PAC Manager. To install check this link download the .deb file and install it using command sudo dpkg -i <package.deb>

Description grabbed from here

PAC is a Perl/GTK Gnome replacement for SecureCRT/Putty/etc... It provides a GUI to configure SSH/Telnet connections: users, passwords, EXPECT regular expressions, macros, etc. You like 'SSHMenu'? If so, you must check this tool. Just let me know how do you feel about it!
