SSH on Win32

I'm planning to start using the built-in remote access in Windows XP Pro to remotely control my PC from work but in case it doesn't work I'll be using something like SSH as a backup system.

My question is: when I use SSH on Win32, will it drop me at the command line like it does on Linux?

If you want to use remote desktop just map port 3389 on your firewall to your work IP only.

Re: SSH on Win32

I use Cygwin with OpenSSH on WinXP for exactly the same purpose. VNC that is, not XP's Remote Connection. I use a password-protected security certificate because I'm a bit paranoid :disturbd:

Re: SSH on Win32

Nice...
I'm currently connected to my home PC/network via my work PC by using the built-in Remote Desktop.
It's like sitting in front of it! :D

Re: SSH on Win32

my "downloading" machine is setup for remote desktop behind my router i also have ICQ installed on it and if im at work and see something i need tod/l i just send the link to icq and pick it up later when i get home..

its great for getting an early start on some edonkey downloads just connect and click ..
