<h4 class="subsection">15.2.2 Connection settings</h4>
<!-- -->
<p>The first configuration part that needs to be filled concerns the way
we will connect to this server:
<p>You have to enter first all mandatory fields, identified by an asterisk:
<ul>
<li>The network name is the name used to connect to this server via your network.
It can be either an IP address, a host name of your local network, or a fully
qualified network name.
<li>The remote access tool is the tool used to connect to this server. You select
it using the drop down list. The following tools are supported natively by
GPS: ssh, rsh, telnet and plink (Windows tool) in ssh, rsh or telnet mode.
See <a href="Defining-a-remote-connection-tool.html#Defining-a-remote-connection-tool">Defining a remote connection tool</a>, if you need to add a
specific tool.
Note also that if one of those tools is not installed (e.g. is not in
your path), then it won't appear in the tools list. Some tools incompatible
with GPS will not be displayed either, such as the Microsoft telnet client.
<li>The shell tells GPS what shell runs on the remote server. The following unix
shells are supported by GPS: sh, bash, csh and tcsh. Windows' shell is also
supported (cmd.exe). See <a href="Limitations.html#Limitations">Limitations</a>, for cygwin's shell usage on
windows: it is preferable to use cmd.exe as a remote shell on Windows servers.
</ul>
<p class="noindent">Other fields might need to be taken into consideration, but they are not
mandatory. They are, for the most part, accessible through the advanced
configuration pane.
<ul>
<li>The remote sync tool is used to synchronize remote and local filesystems, if
these are not shared filesystems. For now, only rsync is supported.
<li>The Extra Init Commands field represents initialization commands sent to the
server upon connection: when GPS connects to your remote machine, the chosen
shell is launched, and your default initialization files are read (i.e. .bashrc
file for the bash shell). Then GPS sends these extra init commands, allowing
you for example to specify a compilation toolchain.
<li>(In Advanced configuration pane) The user name specifies the name used to
connect to the server. If unspecified, the remote access tool will typically
use your current login name. If not, and a user name is requested, GPS will
prompt you for a user name.
<li>(In Advanced configuration pane) The timeout value is used to determine if a connection to a remote host is
dead. All elementary operations performed on the remote host (i.e., operations
that normally complete almost immediately) will use this timeout value. By
default, this value is set to 10s. If you have a very slow network connection
or a very overloaded server, set this timeout to a higher value.
<li>(In Advanced configuration pane) The maximum number of connections determines the maximum number of simultaneous
connections GPS is allowed to have to this server. In fact, if you want to
compile, debug and execute at the same time on the machine, GPS will need
more that one connection to do this. The default value is 3.
<li>(In Advanced configuration pane) Depending on the kind of server and the remote
access tool used, commands sent to the server may require a specific line terminator,
i.e., either the LF character or CR/LF characters. Usually GPS can automatically detect what is needed
(the 'auto' mode), but the choice can be forced to CR/LF (cr/lf handling
set to 'on') or LF (cr/lf handling set to 'off').
<li>(In Advanced configuration pane) The Debug console allows you to easily
debug a remote connection. If checked, it will open a console
reporting all exchanges between GPS and the selected server.
</ul>
