  14 \S{plink-manpage-description} DESCRIPTION
  15
  16 \cw{plink} is a network connection tool supporting several protocols.
  17
  18 \S{plink-manpage-options} OPTIONS
  19
  20 The command-line options supported by \cw{plink} are:
  21
  22 \dt \cw{-V}
  23
  24 \dd Show version information and exit.
  25
  26 \dt \cw{-pgpfp}
  27
  28 \dd Display the fingerprints of the PuTTY PGP Master Keys and exit,
  29 to aid in verifying new files released by the PuTTY team.
  30
  31 \dt \cw{-v}
  32
  33 \dd Show verbose messages.
  34
  35 \dt \cw{-load} \e{session}
  36
  37 \dd Load settings from saved session.
  38
  39 \dt \cw{-ssh}
  40
  41 \dd Force use of SSH protocol (default).
  42
  43 \dt \cw{-telnet}
  44
  45 \dd Force use of Telnet protocol.
  46
  47 \dt \cw{-rlogin}
  48
  49 \dd Force use of rlogin protocol.
  50
  51 \dt \cw{-raw}
  52
  53 \dd Force raw mode.
  54
  55 \dt \cw{-serial}
  56
  57 \dd Force serial mode.
  58
  59 \dt \cw{-P} \e{port}
  60
  61 \dd Connect to port \e{port}.
  62
  63 \dt \cw{-l} \e{user}
  64
  65 \dd Set remote username to \e{user}.
  66
  67 \dt \cw{-m} \e{path}
  68
  69 \dd Read remote command(s) from local file \e{path}.
  70
  71 \dt \cw{-batch}
  72
  73 \dd Disable interactive prompts.
  74
  75 \dt \cw{-pw} \e{password}
  76
  77 \dd Set remote password to \e{password}. \e{CAUTION:} this will likely
  78 make the password visible to other users of the local machine (via
  79 commands such as \q{\c{w}}).
  80
  81 \dt \cw{\-L} \cw{[}\e{srcaddr}\cw{:]}\e{srcport}\cw{:}\e{desthost}\cw{:}\e{destport}
  82
  83 \dd Set up a local port forwarding: listen on \e{srcport} (or
  84 \e{srcaddr}:\e{srcport} if specified), and forward any connections
  85 over the SSH connection to the destination address
  86 \e{desthost}:\e{destport}. Only works in SSH.
  87
  88 \dt \cw{\-R} \cw{[}\e{srcaddr}\cw{:]}\e{srcport}\cw{:}\e{desthost}\cw{:}\e{destport}
  89
  90 \dd Set up a remote port forwarding: ask the SSH server to listen on
  91 \e{srcport} (or \e{srcaddr}:\e{srcport} if specified), and to
  92 forward any connections back over the SSH connection where the
  93 client will pass them on to the destination address
  94 \e{desthost}:\e{destport}. Only works in SSH.
  95
  96 \dt \cw{\-D} [\e{srcaddr}:]\e{srcport}
  97
  98 \dd Set up dynamic port forwarding. The client listens on
  99 \e{srcport} (or \e{srcaddr}:\e{srcport} if specified), and
 100 implements a SOCKS server. So you can point SOCKS-aware applications
 101 at this port and they will automatically use the SSH connection to
 102 tunnel all their connections. Only works in SSH.
 103
 104 \dt \cw{-X}
 105
 106 \dd Enable X11 forwarding.
 107
 108 \dt \cw{-x}
 109
 110 \dd Disable X11 forwarding (default).
 111
 112 \dt \cw{-A}
 113
 114 \dd Enable agent forwarding.
 115
 116 \dt \cw{-a}
 117
 118 \dd Disable agent forwarding (default).
 119
 120 \dt \cw{-t}
 121
 122 \dd Enable pty allocation (default if a command is NOT specified).
 123
 124 \dt \cw{-T}
 125
 126 \dd Disable pty allocation (default if a command is specified).
 127
 128 \dt \cw{-1}
 129
 130 \dd Force use of SSH protocol version 1.
 131
 132 \dt \cw{-2}
 133
 134 \dd Force use of SSH protocol version 2.
 135
 136 \dt \cw{-C}
 137
 138 \dd Enable SSH compression.
 139
 140 \dt \cw{-i} \e{path}
 141
 142 \dd Private key file for authentication.
 143
 144 \dt \cw{-s}
 145
 146 \dd Remote command is SSH subsystem (SSH-2 only).
 147
 148 \dt \cw{-N}
 149
 150 \dd Don't start a remote command or shell at all (SSH-2 only).
 151
 152 \dt \cw{\-sercfg} \e{configuration-string}
 153
 154 \dd Specify the configuration parameters for the serial port, in
 155 \cw{-serial} mode. \e{configuration-string} should be a
 156 comma-separated list of configuration parameters as follows:
 157
 158 \lcont{
 159
 160 \b Any single digit from 5 to 9 sets the number of data bits.
 161
 162 \b \cq{1}, \cq{1.5} or \cq{2} sets the number of stop bits.
 163
 164 \b Any other numeric string is interpreted as a baud rate.
 165
 166 \b A single lower-case letter specifies the parity: \cq{n} for none,
 167 \cq{o} for odd, \cq{e} for even, \cq{m} for mark and \cq{s} for space.
 168
 169 \b A single upper-case letter specifies the flow control: \cq{N} for
 170 none, \cq{X} for XON/XOFF, \cq{R} for RTS/CTS and \cq{D} for
 171 DSR/DTR.
