This article will show you how to connect to a linux server via SSH (Secure Shell).

On Windows we recommend the SSH program “PuTTy.”
PuTTY.exe is a program that makes Windows users establish a secure connection to Linux (and Unix) terminals, among other things

PuTTY can be downloaded from the authors website
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

When you open PuTTy you will be presented with the following screen:

Main PuTTY Screen

Please enter the IP address or hostname of your linux server and then press the Open button.

You will then be shown the following message:

PuTTy Security Alert

Click Yes to this message. You will get this the first time you connect to a server.

You will then be asked to enter your username and password.

PuTTY Terminal Screen

You can now enter commands into the SSH client.
