The servers emit messages when the configuration changes, which could become a problem when strict change controls are required. In Windows, the Tectia server generates messages to the Windows Event Log.
On Unix, the Tectia code generates syslog messages so you can track procedures such as user logons or logon failures.
You manage Tectia servers like any other Unix/Linux Daemon or Windows service. For example, while the documentation suggests that the product supports IPv6, the vendor does not recommend it for production environments. The documentation was accurate and plentiful, and gave solid information about the core functions overall, but the parts pertaining to the new features were a bit sloppy. But the software was more difficult to get running on Red Hat Advanced Server because you have to uninstall OpenSSH to run Tectia. Installation of Tectia 4.0 on Windows systems was straightforward. We tested Tectia 4.0 client and server versions for Windows and Linux (see How we did it.) SSH Communications also offers Tectia Connector, a product that supports application tunneling, and Tectia Manager, software for managing distributed Tectia client/server installations. Tectia 4.0, announced in October and released in December, supports the current version of the protocol, SSH 2, and the older SSH 1.
The SSH code - developed by SSH Communications in 1995 - provides console (or 'shell') communications between a network device and a local PC over the Internet, using cryptographic techniques to secure user authentication processes and data traffic flow between the machines.
