Notes for Remote Terminal Users

The appearance of the graphical interface depends on the color and font settings used by your terminal window. The screen captures in this document were made using the default color and font settings in a Cygwin Bash Shell running on Windows XP. If you are using a remote terminal application such as PuTTY or a Cygwin bash shell, make sure your window is at least:

81 characters wide and 23 characters high

If you are using PuTTY, you can make the Administration Tools look like the screen captures in this document:

  1. In the PuTTY Configuration dialog, create or load a saved session.
  2. Click Category: Window > Appearance.
  3. In the Font settings, click the Change... button.
  4. Select Font: Terminal Font Style: Regular Size: 10
  5. Click OK.
  6. Click Category: Session
  7. Click Save

Repeat these steps for each existing session that you use to run the Administration Tools.
