Ever since upgrading to this version, one of the machines I used to be able to connect to immediately exits/crashes the app.

I even created a new config to connect to the machine and it does the same thing.

Is there a way that I can debug/log what's happening?

BTW -- the session type is VNC over SSH.

I have it set to ask me for the SSH password and I have given it the VNC password as part of the config. It accepts the SSH password and then tells me its creating a tunnel and then I'm greeted with the ipad's main screen. (This is an ipad 3, btw.)

I tried it with and without asking for VNC password. I tried it at both 16 and 32 bpp. I tried it with VNC alt encoding off and on. In all cases, the session crashes and I go back to the ipad home screen. If I check the list of apps, remoter is still running, just no session I tried to just start.

okay, the problem I'm having is more general than I thought.

I can't get a simple SSH session to open. Without the VNC stuff, I just set up a simple ssh session. I tried it to a couple of different machines with the same result as above.

But, not to all hosts. One ssh session I'd previously set up works, and from the the machine that I've ssh'd into, I can ssh into the other machines that I couldn't get to directly above.

I'm baffled.

Hi Wayne,
You're not alone. Several users have reported this issue. This has now been corrected, and version 3.6.1 was submitted earlier today to Apple.
Let's hope for a quick turn-around.
The main problem is related to the "Request Username", "Request Password" features. As a temporary work around: if you turn them off, and use the Security Pin feature in Remoter Config in the mean time, you should be able to connect to your servers.

I'm really sorry about this inconvenience, and I thank you for your report!,
Raf.

Apple performed an expedited review on 3.6.1. It has been now approved, and is now out. Please update.

Thanks!

Just to clarify, is the fix to the SSH key manager in 3.6.1 or 3.6.2?

*EDIT* Sorry, I just read the above post more clearly. *sigh* Any expectation of when 3.6.2 will be approved? I need the manager for several of my connections (only key authentication over ssh).

The SSH Manager fix is in 3.6.2.
Unfortunately, from the point updates are submitted to Apple, developers have no control as to how long it will take for Apple to review.
All I know at this point is that the app is in the "Waiting For Review" state. But based on experience, since it was submitted last Friday, we should expect the update to be live around this weekend.

Thanks,
Raf.
