Description of PuTTY
Need to connect to your Web server for maintenance? Use an SSH (Secure Shell) client, like PuTTY, to create a secure connection. It encrypts the entire connection--including the part where you type your password--so snoops can't listen in.
This free utility doesn't just work for SSH connections. According to the vendor, PuTTY also works for the Telnet and Rlogin network protocols. These protocols are all used to run a remote session on a computer, over a network.
PuTTY implements the client end of that session (the end at which the session is displayed), rather than the end at which it runs, the vendor says. For example, you can run PuTTY on a Windows PC, and tell that PC to connect to an Unix machine. PuTTY then opens a window, and anything you type into that window is sent to the Unix machine. Everything the Unix machine sends back is displayed in the window. It is designed to allow you to work on the remote machine as if you were sitting at its console, while actually sitting somewhere else.
