                       Installation Instructions 
==========================================================================

* Installation

  Before starting the F-Secure SSH Client installation process, close 
  all running applications.

  If you receive the file fssh5b27.exe, simply double click the fssh5b27.exe
  file and follow the instructions of the setup program to install F-Secure SSH 
  Client on your computer.

  If you have a folder "disk1", double click the setup.exe file in that folder
  and follow the  instructions of the setup program to install F-Secure SSH
  Client on  your computer.
  
  The setup.exe program can also run in silent mode (setup -s). In the silent
  mode the setup program reads the installation instructions from prodsett.ini. 
  If you run setup.exe in silent mode the keycode must be provided in the 
  command line before the -s switch, or in the prodsett.ini file described
  below. These are the default settings if the file prodsett.ini is missing:

  [Silent Setup]   
  destinationDirUnderProgramFiles=F-Secure
  
  [SSHINST.DLL]
  FolderName=F-Secure SSH Client
  DestinationPath=Ssh
  AddToPath=Yes
  FolderType=common  
  AddDesktopShortcut=yes
    
  FolderType is only valid with Windows NT. Valid values are Common and Private.
  If it is something else, the folder type is common. 
  
  The keycode for F-Secure SSH Client setup can be provided in prodsett.ini as 
  follows:
 
  [F-Secure common]
  cd-key=keycode
  
  See section "Running F-Secure SSH" for more information on how to use
  F-Secure SSH.
 
==========================================================================
     Instructions for Users of Previous Versions 
==========================================================================

* Upgrading

  This version is compatible with all the previous F-Secure SSH 2.0 file 
  formats.
  
  We recommend using version 2.0.12 or later of the F-Secure SSH UNIX
  server for full compatibility and best performance.

* Client-Server Issues

  The TCP/IP forwarding code works properly only with version 2.0.12
  and later.

  We strongly recommend that you upgrade the UNIX server to version 2.4.0
  for best performance and compatibility between the UNIX and Windows 
  programs.

==========================================================================
                           Running F-Secure SSH
==========================================================================

* What do I need to run F-Secure SSH? 

  You must have WINSOCK.DLL (version 1.1 or higher) installed on your 
  Windows system and either a Local Area Network or an Internet connection
  before you can use F-Secure SSH. 

  To connect to a remote server, the server must be running an F-Secure SSH 
  Server for UNIX. This version is compatible with version 2.0.9 and 
  later. 

* Connecting to a Remote Host

  To connect to a remote computer using password authentication:

  1. In the Terminal or File Transfer window, press the Enter key

  2. In the Logon window, type the name of the remote host you
  want to connect to, and the user name for your account.

  3. From the authentication group, select Password as your authentication type.

  4. Choose the OK button.

  5. Type in the password for you account to the Connect Using Password 
  Authentication dialog box.

  7. Click OK or press Enter to connect.

  If this is the first time you are connecting to the host, F-Secure SSH Client
  may ask you to accept the host's previously unknown host key.

  NOTE: The quickest way to make the connection if your settings are 
  correct is to press the Enter key in an empty terminal window. This 
  will bring up the connection dialog box immediately.

* Getting Help

  See the F-Secure Client Help file for information on all F-Secure SSH 
  Features by pressing the Help button on one of the F-Secure SSH dialog boxes.
