Linux Administrator prefer to use SSH / SCP for shell / file transfer use.
Many of us works in mix Linux – Windows environment and might want to use SSH / SFTP for Windows to get better security.
http://www.freesshd.com/ provides free SSH & FTP server for Windows. This can also be used as Telnet / FTP server.
I configured both on Windows XP, bellow are few images if you want to try.
After installing freeSSHD all I had to do is creation of user to get ssh working.
Following images are for freeFTPD.
If you try ssh to freeFTPD you’ll get following warning.
You will get sftp using both freeFTPd & freeSSHd.
If you wish to implement sftp, freeFTPd is better as it will block shell access.
