omg... Many apologies! I don't understand how I misread this and misunderstood prompt for banner. Must have been tunnel vision as I was missing a monospaced font for the banner and I only saw what I wanted to see.

Thanks. I've sent you an email to the address you have used to register on this forum.

It's actually not a prompt, but a banner, so not what this thread is about.
But anyway, this has been added to the tracker:

i second that monospaced font should be used in the server prompt.

we use figlet inside our banners and those get mixed up as well.

Until this feature is added, a simple workaround would be to copy the text to Notepad or something monospaced :) Assuming that you can actually copy it from the WinSCP window, of course.

Now that we are on the fonts topic, the Enter Command text box from the Console window should use a monospace font as well, just like the log window which is now using Lucida Console.

Thanks for your suggestion. Will see if more people ask for it.

That would be great!

Missed one line:

wget <invalid hyperlink removed by admin>
cd /opt
tar xfz /tmp/pam_captcha-1.5.tar.gz
apt-get install libpam0g-dev
apt-get install figlet
make
cp pam_captcha.so /lib/security/.
vim /etc/pam.d/sshd
--&amp;gt; add first line
auth requisite pam_captcha.so math dda randomstring
vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config
--&amp;gt; add / unremark

All sound good to me...

Unfortunately access to a production server is not possible. Setup on Ubuntu, on a root prompt:

//==========================================================================
wget <invalid hyperlink removed by admin>
cd /opt
tar xfz /tmp/pam_captcha-1.5.tar.gz
apt-get install libpam0g-dev
apt-get install figlet
make
cp pam_captcha.so /lib/security/.
vim /etc/pam.d/sshd
--> add first line
auth requisite pam_captcha.so math dda randomstring
vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config
--> add / unremark
PasswordAuthentication no

ChallengeResponseAuthentication yes
//==========================================================================

If this is not working for you, please let me know and I'll setup a test VM.

Hi,

Some server I want to connect to use a ASCII-based CAPTCHA <https://github.com/jordansissel/pam_captcha>. This workd fine with tools like ssh and putty. However WinSCP uses a non-monospace font which screws up the CAPTHA. Is it possible to use a monospace font in the 'server prompt' window to fix this? Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Jeroen
