My remote Windows2003 server runs SSH Tectia 4.05 Server. I connect
from XP using putty 0.58 or the SSH non-commercial client version
3.2.9. I want my ssh-connection to behave as a CMD command-prompt
started from Windows. This is my ssh welcoming text
-----------------------------------------------
Microsoft Windows [Version 5.2.3790]

C:\Documents and Settings\sshuser1>
-----------------------------------------------

Typing "telnet localhost 25" at the command line, launches something
somewhere on the server. But I just can't see it. My prompt
immediately returns to "C:\Documents and Settings\sshuser1>" instead
of showing me the telnet output. On unix I would see the telnet
output.

Port 25? That's the SMTP port, for email, not the port for SSH. I suspect
you want port 22.

A similar issue is the command "vim.exe", which hangs my ssh-session,
the output from vim is not shown to me, but the keyboard input is
sent to a invisible vim-session, and enables me to quit vim and
return to the ssh window. Vim outputs "Vim: Warning: Output is not to
a terminal".

Can you install OpenSSH on an alternative port and test with that?

Q: How can I configure Tectia (or the ssh client) to show me the
output? (My "Terminal provider"-setting in Tectia is the default,
"cmd.exe", putty settings are default)

I don't know for Tectia, but you can easily install CygWin with the OpenSSH
client and use "ssh -v" with as many -v's as you need to display as much as
possible of the connection.
