I ssh from a windows box into SuSE boxes all the time.
In general it works great.
Running yast2 in terminal mode is the one exception.
Does anyone know a ssh client (and terminal emulation) that lets the alt-x key sequences work and draws the screen graphics correctly?
I mind it being commercial, but OSS would be better.
Currently I use cygwin and ssh when I want to run yast2, but the graphics show as funky chars.
I use "SecureCRT" in vt100 mode for my normal ssh access, but I don't know how to get alt-x type of keystrokes to be sent.

The best recommendation is PuTTY http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ When you setup your putty session though, go into the Terminal options and check Use Background colour to erase screen, otherwise YaST and other ncurses programs will have odd black sections showing through. Another useful tool is WinSCP http://winscp.vse.cz/eng/ which is an Explorer-like scp file manager.
