Re: Screen reader advice for a Linux sysadmin

Why not just ssh into your Linux servers from a Linux terminal? Its ssh capability is far better than anything you can get from a Windows app using their lackluster screen readers.

Java apps use the java-atk-bridge to work with Orca, but that's only if you require graphical tools. If not, you can do that from a text terminal as well. That just leaves the Windows servers, and I personally would avoid those like the plague, especially in a business environment. I can't recommend anything good for accessing such things.

Really though, Linux has some of the best accessibility tools around for sysadmin tasks, so do give it a shot. If you find NVDA usable, you'll LOVE Orca, as it deals with flat review of the screen rather than NVDA's constructed object navigation, which is foreign even to a power user like me.
