Accessing Server from Android
Recently I help maintain some server, sometime I tend to move around. So I decide to make my phone to be useful.
Android actually have a couple of app that is useful to remotely access a machine. Some of them is free.
For connecting to SSH, I found that connectbot works extremely well. It only does ssh and telnet, and thats about it. It is pretty straight forward to use. For accessing windows server, I use 2x client. Which again another another straight forward RDP client. Both connectbox and 2x client is free, and that is awesome.
The only issue on using android phone to access a server remotely is. I have a desire hd. While the screen is pretty large for a phone, typing command via ssh or, navigate around a windows server via RDP can be still a pain. It is still smaller that most desktop screen. And I don't have a full size keyboard on the phone. Which is another pain especially I access linux server most of the time.
So it can be a pain to use at time. But for quick fix or checking on server. This work pretty well.
I attached some links for the app below
