Shell Integration with File Transfer Connections

Hi,

It would be cool if File Transfer connections had an option for
shell integration once logging into a server. For example in WinSCP in the
shell you can say “sudo su -” to make you root if you have those
permissions of course. Screenshot attached. But I can’t change my user in
regular file transfer connections in Royal TS after a connection is made. I
can’t connect as root because we don’t/shouldn’t know the root password in my
work and we are in the sudoers file to just be able to switch to root once
connected.

Anyways I have WinSCP as an external application in Royal TS
with parameters to connect easily for this as a workaround but it would be cool
if this was a built-in feature.

Thanks

Hi,

we’re using a 3rd party component for the file transfers and unfortunately there’s no support for this scenario. I’ve contacted them and asked if they can provide this feature in their component.

I’m happy to report that Royal TS 5.0 has been released and includes this feature.
