SuperPuTTY saves me so much time and effort when managing multiple instances of the same application across multiple hosts.
Has anybody else tried using native Win32 OpenSSH like myself instead of PuTTy? https://github.com/PowerShell/Win32-OpenSSH Edit: Also, the linked site for MTPuTTy doesn't seem to want to load for me.
Yes, with a lot of issues. They are open issues and being actively worked on, but it isn't exactly stable enough to use everyday, at least for me. --- Almost all the issues are intermittent, and you might not be affected, but my luck has been bad: * Hangs till return, sometimes. [0] * v-flag can hang. [1] * Alt sends \0. [2] * Authentication fails. [3] * Nmap fills the hard drive when sshd is running. Sometimes. [4]…
of course, with WSL, there's not much reason for any of these ssh-on-windows solutions anymore.
I switched to MOBAXterm for this years ago. I need to give this a try. MOBAXterm does have a full X server and X11-Forwarding which is very handy.
Never heard of this alternative to PuTTY before. Looks like just what I've wanted! How do I find out about other utilities like this I may be missing?
This is a great site to look for alternatives to some common things. I love that you can filter by platform and license, and the votes are a rough indication of viability.

MSYS has a solid win32 OpenSSH CLI binary. it's what "git bash" on Windows uses. of course, with WSL, there's not much reason for any of these ssh-on-windows solutions anymore.
Just my luck.
If it were smart he wouldn't be afraid to share the sources. How do we know there isn't a keylogger?
Termius, I found to be the best SSH client that works on all devices & OSs, including my laptop on Ubuntu. It's not free but worth the small amount it costs to be able to share connection settings across devices.
... And the Dev has been responsive to requests, issues, etc. On Twitter for me also.

Why do non technical users need to use PuTTY? Probably showing my general world knowledge ignorance here.
These aren't non-technical users - a lot of these are long-time UNIX/Linux sysadmins. It's important to note that, especially in large environments, has different skill levels. I know a guy that can go deep into analyzing a kernel dump and figure out exactly what made some obscure application crash, but god help him when it comes to doing basic functions on his Windows PC. Being good at your sysadmin job doesn't alwa…
My preferred open source tool is Multi PuTTY Manager which has nice coupling to WinSCP. Otherwise I use SecureCRT though I imagine XShell is just as good at that level. https://www.google.com/url?q=https://sourceforge.net/project...
