PuTTY SSH
WinSCP
WINDOWS 10 has openssh installed by default (as an "optional feature"), so you can use that (from a cmd.exe window).
This is the same ssh client used on Linux and MacOS.
Other useful information (not needed for SSH):
Cygwin - Open Source Unix Emulation Environment for Windows (includes an Xserver)
PuTTY - an SSH and SCP client for Windows.
To use PuTTY:
Putty is installed on the Managed (by us) Windows Clients.
Putty provides ssh, scp, an authentication agent and a key-generator.
You may start it from the command line with:
putty
additional help on the sub-options will be provided.
Or to start it with a menu of choices
putty menu
To read the documentation use:
putty doc
PuTTY is available for download (for use on any Windows computer) from:
PuTTY Home Page
(Current Version 0.72 - don't use the development version)
We recommend you download the zip file and just extract it into a folder from which you want to run putty (no actual install needed).
WinSCP is an Open Source graphical sftp client built on Putty code
WinSCP is available for download from:
