Many servers currently are only accessible through SSH, and no longer through unsecure channels such as telnet.\n\nA good SSH client for Windows systems is PuTTY. You can install PuTTY from the Software Center on UU Windows PC's. Or alternatively, if you have admin rights, [http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html you can download the PuTTY distribution file] (choose the file <code>putty-xxxx-installer.exe</code> for a complete installation) and install PuTTY.\n\n==Basic use of PuTTY==\nSSH uses so-called ''public'' and ''private keys'' to authenticate and authorise, but it can be used without keys. Start PuTTY, enter the host name, choose SSH for protocol and activate the connection by clicking ''Open''.  You will be prompted for a user name and password to open the connection.\n\nThe PuTTY manual is accessible from the PuTTY main screen, or via ''Programs > PuTTY > PuTTY Manual''. The PuTTY site also offers [http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/docs.html on-line documentatie].\n\n* You can save a session's properties, such as host name, user name, screen colors etc.  Use the ''Save'' button on the session setup screen.\n\n* You can start a PuTTY session directly.  For this, you need to make a shortcut to the program <code>putty.exe</code>. Next, change the shortcut properties by adding <code>@<sessienaam></code> to the ''Target'' field.\n\n==Public/private keys==\nYou can use the PuTTYGen program to generate private/public keypairs. Using a key has the advantage of ''not'' having to use the unix/linux password. For details, see the PuTTY manual, and the ssh man page on the unix/linux system. Preferably, use the SSH2 protocol with RSA key.\n\n==PuTTY en X-Windows==\nYou can use X-Windows through PuTTY, provided there is some X-server installed on your own system, such as Exceed. You must activate X11 forwarding for PuTTY: ''SSH > Tunnels > Enable X11 forwarding''.\n\n==See also...==\n* Apart from PuTTY, you can use [https://winscp.net/ WinSCP], an (s)FTP client that also uses public/private keys.\n* [[Linux interactive shell]]\n* [[SSH with passphrase]] (Mac OSX or Linux)\n\n\n[[Category:Index]]\n[[Category:Manuals]]\n[[Category:Windows]]"
