Can't locate developer - Version: 2.8.11, 10/22/2006 10:43AM PST

This software looks good, but we have a few questions regarding relative minor issues.

Unfortunately, the developer seems no where to be found. Three emails over the past month have gone unanswered.

I guess I have to look for another solution.

pidog software seems to have ceased to exist - Version: 2.8.11, 9/7/2006 07:32AM PST

vt couldn't fetch the software because firefox couldn't connect to the server, so i tried going straight to pidog.com and saw a page apparently belonging to pidog's former hosting company and saying:

This is the Plesk™ default page

If you see this page it means:

1) hosting for this domain is not configured
or

2) there's no such domain registered in Plesk.

For more information please contact Administrator.

reviews of telnetlauncher i've seen while trying to find it have said there are much better apps available and recommended SSH Tunnel Manager and iTerm.

PiDog software has a winner with this one! I've been using it for years and being a Unix admin that connects to many machines during the day, this is an indispensible tool in my daily work. The release time between the recent 10.3.7 and the 2.8.4 patch was only days which really helps for those of us who are forgetful and upgrade without remembering that TL needs to be updated with each version patch.
