A coworker came across MobaSSH a few days ago. Looks pretty good, but I<span></span> haven't tried it. <br><br>On Thursday, January 31, 2013, Scott Plante wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Before that, I used WRQ Reflection. Sometime in the early aughts I switched to PuTTY for those times I needed an SSH client on Windows, and still use it. Recently I came across <a href="http://www.dameware.com/free-ssh-client-for-windows.aspx" target="_blank">DameWare SSH Client</a>, and it made me wonder about PuTTY alternatives.</font><div style="font-size:12pt">
<br>DameWare's big claim to fame is that it has a tabbed interface and is supposedly as good as paid SSH clients. I can't recommend it. The terminal emulation doesn't work for me, it doesn't support public keys, and you <i>have to</i> use the tab interface--you can't open two separate windows.<br>
<br>I've also tried the Google Chrome SSH app which is beta and doesn't have too many bells and whistles, but seems to work fine.</div><div style="font-size:12pt"><br></div><div style="font-size:12pt">I was wondering what SSH clients everyone else is using and/or recommending these days?</div>
