1.0 Quick Start Guide

NOTE: If you are an EASE Client and you use DHCP, RepDev will not work. It has to be a static IP, I’m not sure why.

1. RepDev comes in 32 bit and 64 bit. Download the correct version based on the version of Java you have installed on your PC. If in doubt, download both versions and see which one works. This is where you can find the latest Downloads; https://github.com/jakepoz/RepDev-downloads
2. Unzip RepDev to a location of your choice.
3. In the RepDev folder, double click on AIX_Term.reg to setup putty, aka plink.exe, for the communication.
4. This step may not be necessary since RepDev should automatically cache the SSH Key now, but run thru these steps just in case.
      a. In the RepDev folder, launch Cache_SSH_Key.bat.
      b. Enter the hostname of your server, i.e. Symitar, SymitarTest, SymBu, SymDev.
      c. Enter your AIX Username and password.
      d. If you are prompted to cache the SSH Key, go ahead and cache it, then close the window.
      e. If you are not prompted to cache the SSH Key, then just close the window.
      f. Repeat a-e for every Symitar Server you'll connect to.
5. Launch RepDev.exe or Start.bat.
6. Configure RepDev Options (Tools, Options)
      a. Set the server to the hostname of your server. I use SymitarTest because I connect to Test SYMs most of the time.
      b. The server name could be changed on the fly when you are adding a SYM.
      c. Set the port to 22 (SSH).
      d. Click “Save Settings”.
      e. Completely close RepDev, then relaunch it.
7. Click “Add a new Sym to this list” icon.
8. Enter the login information for the SYM accordingly and click Login.
9. If RepDev freezes, look at stdout.txt to see what the problem might be. If you are not able to resolve it, reach out to SMUG for help.
