Im looking for a compact SSH daemon operating in windows. Im tired of using insecure ftp and netcat in windows. So does anyone know a good package offhand that preferably doesnt need to be installed (stand-alone exe), and supports SSH and SCP for my shell and file transfers. Also, any good tuts available for tunneling different protocols through SSH? Thanks.

winscp3 for file transfers and putty for ssh shell

Oh sorry, maybe I wasnt 100% clear. I need a server for it, already got the windows clients to connect to it. Im going to be setting it up as a service on a remote machine, thats why stand-alone would be ideal.

Appreciate it tho illwill

get cygwin opensshd is included. Or try google hxxp://www.google.com/search?q=windows+ssh+server&sourceid=firefox&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

ssh.com has clients and servers

Well, I'm not sure if I understood you correctly, but winsshd could be useful for your puroposes.

I use OpenSSH for windows.
A minimal cygwin installation.

Check it out

OpenSSH on Windows works fine but

now i have a problem :

in the readme file ... :

4. Use mkpasswd to add authorized users into the passwd file. For local users, use the "-l" switch. For domain users, use the "-d" switch.
For both domain and local, it is best to run the command twice (remember to use >>, not >). If you use both, make sure to edit the file to remove any duplicate entires.

mkpasswd -l [-u <username>] >> ..\etc\passwd (local users)


----------------
but where can i define the password ?

because when i start the openSSH server then ... and use ssh.exe
ssh.exe -l administrator 192.168.2.101

he asked me for a password ... and i cant leave it blank

Permission Denied ...

so can anybody say me where i can define the password pls ?

i found this:

your exe file shows only a banner of the webhoster

grml

it works but

i cant get the pass of my ******* SSH ....

i created a new account on my system because my administrator account hasnt a password


but it dont work

always the wrong password

why it must be a user of the system ??

why OSSH cant work alone ... that im creating accounts which has not any function with the windows accounts

why it cant work how as example FTPs Programms

because the purpose of ssh, is to remotely log in the machine

did you create the new account before or after installing ?

in that case open a shell, chdir the bin subdirectory of the openssh directory, and type:
mkgroup -l >>../etc/group
mkpasswd -l >>../etc/passwd
