RHarbor is recommended for the following people.
- You need to connect to many remote servers
- You need to connect to a remote server via SSH servers (so-called “bastion”)
- You need to forward a port of a remote server easily
- You need to manage connection informations in one place.

About connection settings
Where to store
RHarbor.db exists in the same folder as RHarbor.exe. This file contains RHarbor’s settings you were set.
Clear all settings
To initialize the setting please shutdown RHarbor and then delete RHarbor.db. New RHarbor.db will be generated when you start RHarbor again.
Back up
To back up your connection settings, just copy RHarbor.db to your backup location.
RHarbor automatically backs it up to your profile folder (typically C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\RHarbor).
Notice
SSH private key file
OpenSSH-format private key files (e.g. generated by ssh-keygen) are allowed.
PuTTy format private key files should be converted to OpenSSH format using puttygen.exe.
RHarbor doesn’t care the key file extension.

The passwords stored in RHarbor are encrypted but still remains some security risks.
Do not install in a shared computer.
Malicious programs or bad people may read passwords in the database file or in memory.
Please make sure that an appropriate antivirus software is installed on your computer and use on your own risk.
