  • 1.  mobaxterm Launcher for Secret Server with proxy

    Posted Tue May 09, 2023 09:33 AM
    Hello Community,

    I'm working on IBM secret server launchers and we enabled the proxy.
    I already configure WinSCP and it is working fine but while configuring mobaxterm  it doesn't work  even i used the same configuration for WinSCP 
    only the difference is the command "-newtab "sshpass -p $Password ssh $Username@$Machine"".  Can anyone help me to solve the issue?

    Hello Mohammed,

    Yes,i did.

    find the process argument as below : 

    -newtab "sshpass -p $Password ssh $Username@$Host"

     Make sure you uncheck Enable graphical SSH-browser from settings ->Configuration -> SSH -> SSH-browser settings 

    Hope this useful for you.

    so I used you fix and it gets me to connecting to the proxy(PAM) but secret server doesn't accept the connection and terminate the connection.

    any idea how to fix it?

    Hello,

    I was able to use MobaXterm with a proxy by using parameters, but after a while, this launcher broke. Is this related to MobaXterm updates? If there is a solution, please enlighten me.

    Hello Mertcan,

    Please check if the error occurs for all users or only specific ones.
    If it's not affecting everyone, try to identify what actions were performed on both sides - PAM and MobaXterm - before the issue occurred.

    You need to configure more details to have the Moba launcher working. 
    Check "Preserve SSH Client Process" to keep the process running maybe after close one session (tab). Each tab it's a new process, should be additional recorded "MoTTYnew.exe".
    From some month ago i need to put some encryption parameters. It's working until now. 

    -newtab "sshpass -p $PASSWORD ssh -o "StrictHostKeyChecking=no" -o "KexAlgorithms=+diffie-hellman-group1-sha1,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1" -o "HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa,ssh-dss" $USERNAME@$HOST -p $PORT"
