Before you write
A quick look at the known issues on the Shazbot page may save you a round trip.
Sending a connection log
If a tunnel won't connect, Shazbot captures a detailed log of the attempt. Including it makes problems much faster to diagnose:
- When a connection fails, the server shows a red banner with the error.
- Click the banner to open the connection log.
- Use Copy (or Save…) and paste the log into your email.
The log contains your server's host, port, username, and the error detail — but never your passwords or key passphrases. Feel free to redact the hostname if you'd prefer.
Helpful details to include
- Your macOS version and Mac model (Apple silicon or Intel).
- The Shazbot version (right-click the menu bar icon → About Shazbot).
- Authentication type (password, or key — and the key type).
- What you expected versus what happened.
