Windows Support Issues

After contacting us, you will need to download our remote support software. This is a small (169KB) stand-alone application that will allow us to securely connect to your computer and establish a remote control session. No installation is required and no registry entries are added or modified. When the support incident is complete, you can delete the remote support application.

Note that if you have a restrictive firewall, you will need the ability to open outgoing TCP connections to support.russellconsultants.com through port #5500.

Linux Support Issues

After contacting us, you will need to establish a remote shell to us as follows:

1. Create a user account for us to login with:
   useradd russellconsultants
passwd russellconsultants
2. Establish a reverse Secure Shell Connection:
   ssh -p 5501 -NR 5901:localhost:22 support@support.russellconsultants.com
   Our RSA key fingerprint is 1d:31:31:36:8a:0b:43:31:0a:5f:ed:58:20:61:2e:19

   You should also be prepared to provide us the root password. We recommend you temporarily change the root password and provide us the temporary password, then change the root password after the support incident is complete.
