In this article, we will look at installing and configuring SSH on a Windows XP client, and then using it to connect to a Linux Server running SSH on it end.īoth ends of this client/server (XP – Linux) connection are authenticated using a digital certificate, and being encrypted protects passwords. You can just use SSH on one end and not the other. SSH works like this: You need the client (which we will learn in the article) and you need a device on the other end that support SSH. This new set of protocol allows for an encrypted connection to a device.

The History of SSH is simple… it’s an alternative to using the Telnet protocol. The purpose of this article is to help the Windows Administrator and Engineer, better understand protocol exploitation and why using SSH for Windows should become something you look to use from now on as an alternative to using Telnet.
