Requirements
- Mac OS X 10.4.X+

Install Fugu
Installing .DMG Applications on Mac OS X is very simple. Simply drag the icon from the .DMG image window into your Applications folder and you are done.
Connecting
Once you have installed Fugu simply enter the information into the fields provided.

After you click connect Fugu will attempt to authenticate with the server bassed on the servers installed mechinisims. This simply means that if you are not using pUblia it will fall back to password authentication and prompt you for your password.
Public Key Authentication
