Can't Type Anything in Putty's Command Propt

[CatzCradle]

Hello,

I just tried setting up Putty for the first time today. After I entered all the necessary information in the Setup and clicked 'Open.' A Command Prompt opens up.
However, when I try to type my Username and Password in, nothing shows up. I am not able to type anything into the program.

Does anyone know why this is happening? How can I fix this please?

Thank you.

Did you enter hostname or IP address in the destination box, the correct
port number in the port box (probably 22), and choose connection type,
which I assume is ssh as you're using putty?

Assuming you want to use those settings again, don't forget to click
saved session.

Yes I entered those information, but didn't click 'Saved Session (I didn't know there was an option).' I just clicked 'Open.'

Do you have a duplexing mismatch?

Click Terminal and look at settings under Line Discipline. Is local
echo set to auto?

Yes it is.

I think I finally figured out what my problem was. I originally stupidly thought a 'Host Name' was simply the name of your computer login like 'User' until I checked a site like snoopmyip.com/.
But when I went to SSH > Tunnels and tried to add a 'Source Port' with ' phspiaguest-nat-address.partners.org:23456', I keep getting the message "You need specify a destination address in the form "host.name:port". Why can't I add it? What am I doing wrong?

Tell me the EXACT name and port of the host you wish to establish an
SSH session with, and I'll tell you EXACTLY which fields to put the
information into.

Open Cydia.
1) Click the "Changes" tab in the footer.
2) Press the "Refresh" button in the top left corner.
3) After "Reloading Data", perform a search for "p0sixspwn" (the O is a zero).
4) Tap Install.
5 After installing p0sixspwn your device is untethered
6) Install ultrasnow 1.2.8( u can use iphone yeta,repo666.ultrasn0w.com or iphone folders any other methodes)
7) Restart your device enjoy


**Rather than using PuTTY for terminal on windows, a better solution would be to use mobile terminal on your apple iphone.**

Go to Cydia
Go to Cydia tab in footer
Scroll down and click "Open SSH"
Scroll down and click on "Change Default Password"
In Option C, you'll find mobile terminal. Click on it.
Install mobile terminal
Exit Cydia and open mobile terminal

You don't have to type the ip address. Type
iphone:~ mobile$ **su root**

The default password is alpine (it won't be visible when you type. Hit return after you've finished

Use the following if you are trying to solve NO SERVICE error in untethered mode
root# chmod 755 /var/mobile/ /var/mobile/Library/ /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/
Exit mobile terminal and go to setting > general > reset > reset network settings
Let the phone reboot itself.

Follow this after the above steps

I initially had that problem and realized I was putting the wrong IP address so it was not prompting me anything.
When I fixed it, it was prompting me to enter the username but then the password wouldn't show me typing it so it was giving me an access denied message.
Even if it doesn't show it is typing it. After a few tries it let me in

Hope that helped.

Even though you can't see what you're typing, you are in fact entering characters into the program (or at least this is how it works on my computer). Type in your username, press enter, and see what happens.

What are your settings? What protocol are you using? Are you using a modem?
What terminal emulation are you using? What type of system are you connecting
to?

Well, Putty doesn't have a command prompt, so that's your first issue.
And why people keep coming to a terminals group to ask about Putty is
another issue. But, tell us, what are you actually trying to do?

Putty is a _terminal_ emulator. One of the most used, I believe.

It is, yes. This group was chartered for supporting actual terminals,
not emulators.

I know this is a 4 year old convo. but I wanted to share what worked for me.
I opened up the properties of putty (right click on the putty icon), then ran compatibility troubleshooter.
Then tried the fix, the putty box opened, I hit the enter key and it worked.
I hope this helps someone.
