ssh, i have no clue? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

dudemac · 07-07-2003, 01:10 PM

A buddy of mine has a file server that we use for posting pics to our website. Well last year the server got hacked pretty good.

Now he is running ssh/scp instead of ftp.

WTF is ssh/scp? and where do i find a client that i can access ssh server, that runs on windows?

Any help from the linux/unix crowd?

SSH is a secure protocol over which SCP (Secure Copy) runs. iXplorer for Windows is what I use.

Thanks man, and someone from my home state too

I was born in Lemmore and lived all over there.

I will give it a try and see if i can figure it out.

I swear by Putty and WinSCP if your client is a Windows box.

All SSH and WinSCP really are, is encrypted versions of telnet and FTP. They protect against hacking by encrypting your data, including login/passwords so they don't go out in the clear.

all hail putty! that's what i use when I don't have a 'nix commandline handy. It's like having a mini-commandline sitting there, so if you're not comfy w/ that, go w/ something w/a gui.

I also adore PuTTY, and recommend it.

I use putty to manage my routers and switches. It is a great product. I think there is now a new version of ssh. I know there were some implementation issues with the previous version.

SecureCRT at the office. PuTTY when I'm a friend's house and need to get to my systems.

WinSCP is pretty cool too (especially for people who are unfamiliar with the CLI). Looks like a drag-and-drop FTP client.
