Meerkat 1.2.1

Meerkat is a simple and easy to use SSH tunnel manager built specifically for the Mac.
Using an innovative Tunnel Setup Assistant, key components of Mac OS X youve grown to love and expect from applications, and community features like Growl and Sparkle, Meerkat is a must-have for the systems administrator or web developer working on the Mac.

Main features:
- Unix power, Mac style: Built upon Mac OS Xs included industry standard SSH client, Meerkat brings the visual appeal of the Mac to the strength and security of UNIX. Tunnels on the Mac are no longer second class citizens.
- Trigger happy: Tunnels can be associated with trigger applications. The result? Tunnels come up when their trigger apps do, so dependent apps have everything they need at the ready. Very happy.
- A key player: Meerkat can either store SSH passwords in the system keychain or use the public key authentication built in to SSH to manage your tunneled accounts. Either way, you hold the key, securely.
- Hello, Bonjour: Tunnels can advertise their presence on the local LAN with Bonjour. iTunes, Web browsers, FTP clients, VNC clients, and others can take advantage of Bonjours ease of use and access secure, tunneled services like any other.
- Play with the big cats: Meerkat is fully compatible with both Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger and Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Mwrrrow!
- Whats on the menu: Meerkats status bar and dock menus give you full access to your tunnels. Whats more, Meerkat can be run without a dock item for a very low paw, err, footprint.
- Growl, but dont bite: Meerkat notifies you of tunnel activations and deactivations via Growl, so whether by trigger application, startup, or manually, you always know whats going on with your services.
- Right from the start: You can set tunnels to automatically start when Meerkat does for hassle free port forwarding whenever you need it.

Version restrictions:
- 14 days trial period.

Enhancements

Bug Fixes:
- A problem with the Sparkle software update mechanism was fixed that would cause updates to fail due to an invalid signature.
