OpenSSH

OpenSSH is an OpenSource implementation of the SSH protocol, enabling secure login and file transfer. It's commonly found on Unix/Linux boxes but also useful for Windows PCs.

Applications:

• Login to SourceForge or other web servers - see SshToSourceForge for handy tips, including links on how to avoid having to type in your password all the time
• ReplicationUsingUnison - ReadWriteOfflineWiki so that laptop users can contribute while not connected
• BackupUsingUnison - painless backups

OpenSSH is available from many sources - home is http://www.openssh.org/. CygWin includes a good port.
