Finding ssh for your computer:

The original ssh is freeware software, so you can download it from the Internet for a variety of platforms (e.g., unix and PC). Commercial programs exist and tend to have better support. This page may help you find an ssh client (or server) for your system. If you have additional information, please let us know so that we can add it for the benefit of other users.

• We have a useful collection of notes and executables related to using ssh on all common platforms. It is located in /apps/sysadmin/ssh_local. Look there for anything that this page doesn't answer.
• As of August 30, 2002 the latest version of ssh for Windows now has the 2 window version of ftp the way WS_FTP does it. The ftp site is at ftp://ftp.ssh.com/pub/ssh/ and the current version is SSHSecureShellClient-3.2.0.exe. This version is considered by some to be far superior to others listed below.
• A nice commerical ssh package is available from Data Fellows. We have the Mac version for ARL; mail consult if you can't find it. They also have versions for the PC. You can download their trial version and use it for 30 days. It costs less than $100 and is half price for educational use (please don't take my word on this!).
• We have a freeware version for Win32 PCs (95/98/NT/2000). You can download the self-extracting zip file.
• For all of the unix clients in the lab, we are using freeware that we have downloaded from here. We use the 3des cypher type which is public domain.
• For Red Hat Linux/i386, go to http://ftp.zedz.net/redhat/ssh.html and download what you need. This may work for other Linux's and other platforms.
