If anyone gets it to work in 8.1 post your code... :)

I followed Ian's Excellent instructions and with a few changes got this to work in 8.1.
I downloaded the AdvancedNodeDetails.resource from the customer download area on the solarwinds.net site here http://support.solarwinds.net/support/Unsupported.cfm?Option=Orion. There is a readme.txt in that download that covers installing it and altering the view to use it instead of the standard details resource.
Then I made the below modifications to that file(01-AdvancedNodeDetails.Resource) where it had text links before, because I liked the icons...but you can keep the text if you like.
<tr>
<td class="Property" width="10"> </td>
<td class="PropertyHeader">Telnet</td>
<td class="Property"> </td>
<td class="Property"><a href="telnet://<%=Node.GetProperty("IP_Address")%>"><img src="images\Small.telnet.gif" mce_src="images\Small.telnet.gif" alt="Telnet to <%=Node.GetProperty("IP_Address")%>" Border=0></a> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="Property" width="10"> </td>
<td class="PropertyHeader">SSH</td>
<td class="Property"> </td>
<td class="Property"><a target='_blank' href="/NetPerfMon/SSH/SSH.asp?ip=<%=Node.GetProperty(" mce_href="/NetPerfMon/SSH/SSH.asp?ip=<%=Node.GetProperty("IP_Address")%>"><img src="images\Small.SSH.gif" mce_src="images\Small.SSH.gif" alt="SSH to <%=Node.GetProperty("IP_Address")%>" Border=0></a> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="Property" width="10"> </td>
<td class="PropertyHeader">Web Browse</td>
<td class="Property"> </td>
<td class="Property"><a href="http://<%=Node.GetProperty("IP_Address")%>"><img src="images\Small.goto.gif" mce_src="images\Small.goto.gif" alt="Browse to <%=Node.GetProperty("IP_Address")%>" Border=0></a> </td>
</tr>
Then I followed Ian's steps 3 and 4.
I changed the code(shown below) in step 5 a little to match the options in the latest version of mindterm and to make it resize the window and allow the menu when doing the ctrl+right mouse click. Still save it as explained by Ian as SSH.asp.
<HTML>
<SCRIPT>
window.resizeTo(600,800);
</SCRIPT>
<APPLET CODE="com.mindbright.application.MindTerm.class"
ARCHIVE="mindterm.jar" WIDTH=100% HEIGHT=100%>
<PARAM NAME="server" VALUE=<%=CStr(Request("ip"))%>>
<PARAM NAME="cabinets" VALUE="mindterm.cab">
<PARAM NAME="sepframe" value="false">
<PARAM NAME="debug" value="false">
<PARAM NAME="menus" value="popN">
</APPLET>
</HTML>
Then I followed steps 6, 7, and 8 per Ian's guide.
I had to make sure that my browser was set to use the Java JVM and not the MS JVM as the latest mindterm does not support it. After that it works great!
A great big thanks to Ian for spending the time to figure this out!
I am trying to follow your wonderfully detailed instructions, but I have obviously missed something along the way :)
When I click on a node in Orion to see the details, I get the following error where I would expect to see the links for telnet, ssh...
Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0408'
Invalid character
/NetPerfMon/Resources/2-1-NodeDetails/01-AdvancedNodeDetails.Resource, line 94
Response.Write(Node.GetProperty(" mce_href="/NetPerfMon/SSH/SSH.asp?ip=<%=
Node.GetProperty("IP_Address"))-------------------------------------------------------------------^Note: Not sure if the location of the ^ underneath is
significant, but in my browser,
it appears right under the ? between SSH.asp?ip=
Thanks,
John
Do you get the same message if you try to visit the following in a browser?
(replace 'YourServername' and 'NodeIPAddress' with the appropriate information)
http://YourServerName/NetPerfMon/SSH/SSH.asp?ip=NodeIPAddress)
No error message. It works for my co-worker, but I just see an
Orange JAVA picture on mine
-John
My orange JAVA logo appears to be caused by Java 1.6, I moved back to 1.5 and it worked find going directly to the node.
Any ideas what else I missed, that could cause the error?
Clarification...the SSH works for both of us when using the direct URL
http://orion.net.dc2.netsol.com/NetPerfMon/SSH/SSH.asp?ip=x.x.x.x
But I still get the error message in the node details of orion that I mentioned above.
Note: We are using Orion 8.1

John,
Can you post what you have in your 01-AdvancedNodeDetails.Resource please.
Thanks
This is what I added

Does the "Response.Write(Node.GetProperty(" mce_href="/NetPerfMon/SSH/SSH.asp?ip=<%=Node.GetProperty("IP_Address"))" line appear anywhere in your 01-AdvancedNodeDetails.Resource file?
I don't see "Response.Write" anywhere, but the rest is there as part of the SSH code like I posted above.
Thanks

I would LOVE to get this implemented in our setup. I tried following the instructions above but the Java app fails to load once I click on the 'S'. PLEASE is there anyone who can help me with this...

Make sure your browser is set to use Java JVM instead of the MS JVM. With the MS JVM selected it will just say the applet has been started but display nothing in the browser window.
Thanks so much, this was the problem. Thank you for the detailed procedure!
Does anyone have this configured for version 9.0 SP1? I tried the instructions posted on this topic but when I get to \Inetpub\SolarWinds\NetPerfMon\Resources\2-1-NodeDetails\01-NodeDetails.Resource I do not have anything called
<% SWToolsetIcon "Telnet",Node.GetProperty("IP_Address")%>
<% SWToolsetIcon "PING",Node.GetProperty("ParamString")%>
Has anyone added the SSH icon from scratch using this new version? I wonder if things have changed with the new version and it has moved but I would like to be able to add the SSH icon next to the Telnet icon on the Node Details page if possible.
Thanks.

Looks like part of this is missing. Don't you need to reference the hostname or IP address somehow?
Is there a way to add this function as a right click selection on NPM Gui?
Thanks qle for that information. I will give it a try and see what happens.
Well I started trying the solution and after reading further on the very first post I noticed he was using MindTerm. We use SecureCRT so now I am at a stand still. I have tried to figure out what he did using MindTerm but cannot seem to recreate it using SecureCRT. Does anyone have an SSH shortcut under node details that uses this? If so would you please help get me in the right direction?
Thanks for any help.
OK I finally figured it out for anyone interested. I hope I did not leave anything out since I just stumbled upon this.
1. Import the registry setting for SecureCRT SSH2 from their website into the registry on the pc using SecureCRT. Here is the registry setting:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ssh2\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\SecureCRT\\SecureCRT.exe\" %1"
2. Added the following line into \InetPub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\Controls\IntegrationIcons.ascx in between the 'goto' and 'telnet' command (actually I just copied the telnet statement and pasted it and changed anything that said telnet to ssh2).
<a href='<%= string.Format("ssh2://{0}", this.MyNode.IPAddress) %>'>
<img src="/Orion/images/ToolsetIntegration/Small.SSH.gif" alt="Open a SSH session to <%= this.MyNode.Name %>"
title="Open a SSH session to <%= this.MyNode.Name %>" />
</a>
3. I created the Small.SSH.gif and put it in \InetPub\SolarWinds\Orion\images\ToolsetIntegration
Thanks to all those who helped get me started.
FYI...Just in case anyone else has this problem but after I upgraded to NCM 5.0 and then integrated it to NPM I lost all my SSH info from above so I had to redo the Integrationsicons.ascx file.
Hi all,
In my case, I followed Ian's instructions with some changes:
Step 1) Open \Inetpub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\Controls\IntegrationIcons.ascx as qle posted above and add:
<a href='<%= string.Format("SSH/SSH.asp?Server={0}", this.MyNode.IPAddress) %>' target="_blank">
<img src="/Orion/images/ToolsetIntegration/Small.SSH.gif" alt="Open an SSH session to " title="Open an SSH session to <%= this.MyNode.Name %>" />
</a>
Step 4) Create "C:\Inetpub\SolarWinds\Orion\NetPerfMon\SSH". It will give me error on Java mindterm.jar if I follow Ian's (C:\Inetpub\SolarWinds\NetPerfMon\SSH.) Dunt know why???
Step 5) Made change in SSH.asp:
<PARAM NAME="server" VALUE=<%=CStr(Request("server"))%>>
Another thing, if you want to make the Telnet icon workable, you also have to modified IntegrationIcons.ascx (in step1):
<a href='<%= string.Format("telnet://{0}", this.MyNode.IPAddress) %>'>
<img src="/Orion/images/ToolsetIntegration/Small.Telnet.gif" alt="Open a Telnet session to <%= this.MyNode.Name %>"
title="Open a Telnet session to <%= this.MyNode.Name %>" />
</a>
Good luck!
