My desktop is on Windows 7.
IBM i5 host table has an entry for the host specified in putty.
NETSTAT command on i5 shows a job listening on port 22

Job . . : QP0ZSPWP User . . : QSECOFR Number . . . : 523124
sshd[33949]: Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 22.
sshd[33949]: Server listening on :: port 22.

But putty just hangs with the spinning bar.

Hi Peter,

Make sure DNS on the IBM i is configured.

Also, if you're on Windows 10 then you can install Bash for a better shell
experience:

Scott,

Thanks for that.
I downloaded putty.exe to my PC => STRTCPSVR *SSHD => clicked on
putty.exe => entered host name => logged on as i5 user => npm
install request-debug Then I see the spinning bar character but it
hangs there.
When I close the session the putty.log shows exactly the same garbage
[0G\ lines as before.
However, QSYSOPR show the error sshd[33524]: fatal: Cannot bind any
address.

Peter,

I would recommend using a "real" Unix terminal rather than 5250. The
way I do that is by running the SSH daemon (STRTCPSVR *SSHD) and
connecting with the free Putty client from Windows.
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

There are many other ways, though.

The funny codes you see like [0G\ are escape sequences that direct the
terminal to do something. They will not show up correctly in a 5250
terminal.

In your example, it looks like it's trying to make a "spinning" bar
character by erasing and drawing characters in the same position of
the screen. Just a little "while you wait" type of animation that
won't work in 5250 and just looks confusing.

By using a real terminal you can, hopefully, see what the actual error is.

I'm on little journey thru Node.js now that I know that IBM support

I want to debug HTTP requests and have seen some useful examples
using
request-debug but it does not seem to be installed.
I can successfully use the request library (which for some reason I
have
to specify the full path) to get HTTP responses from a 3rd party
server but when I add the require for request-debug I get an error.

var request =
require('/QOpenSys/QIBM/ProdData/Node/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modu
le
s/request');
require('request-debug')(request);

Cannot find module 'request-debug'

I googled and found some advice from Aaron Bartell who has used npm
install from QSH or QP2TERM so I tried npm install require-debug

But it just repeated outputs lines of garbage like [0G\ [0G| [0G/
[0G- [0G\ [0G| [0G/ [0G- [0G\ [0G| [0G/ [0G- [0G\

Same thing no matter what the name of the module to be installed is.

Peter
