How to remotely log on to Windows in Linux

Article Title: how to remotely log on to Windows in Linux. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

The network is under attack, which is often caused by the Telnet service provided by the server. Indeed, for UNIX systems, to remotely manage them, you must use a remote terminal. to use a remote terminal, you must start the Telnet service on the server. However, the Telnet service has a fatal weakness-it transfers user names and passwords in plain text, so it is easy for others to steal passwords with ulterior motives. Currently, SSH is a useful tool to effectively replace the Telnet service. When the SSH client communicates with the server, the user name and password are encrypted to effectively prevent password eavesdropping.

This article introduces the use of SSH server software packages running on common operating systems. The SSH software package consists of two parts: the server software package and the customer software package. For UNIX and Linux systems, these two packages are packaged separately in two different files. In Windows 9x/NT/2000, it is also divided into two parts, the difference is that the Server software package can only run in Windows NT and Windows 2000 Server versions, client SSH can run on all Windows systems. In addition, SSH is divided into two versions: SSH1 and SSH2. SSH1 is a completely free software package, and SSH2 is charged for commercial use. It is also known from its naming that SSH1 is the first version. it is not as powerful as SSH2, but is widely used in many websites because it is free of charge. SSH2 is compatible with SSH1 servers and provides good service support for SSH1 clients. Therefore, if SSH2 is installed in your system, there is no need to install the SSH1 package.

Install SSH2 in UNIX/Linux

1. download the software package www.ssh.com and download the latest software package SSH2. it is best to download the source software package and compile it on your own.

2. unzip and install:

# tar -zxvf ssh2-2.4.0.tar.gz # cd ssh2-2.4.0 # ./configure # make #make install

Installation is complete. In this process, the server software package and the client software are installed together, so you do not have to install the client software package again.

Compiled binary packages are stored in the ftp: // ftp.ssh.com/pub/ssh/rpmdirectory in rpm format. It is a software package for non-commercial users, the package name is: ssh-2.4.0-1. i386.rpm, which includes support for X Window, and another software package that does not support X Window is ssh-2.4.0-1nox. i386.rpm, which can be directly installed after download. Install the SSH2 software package on windows NT in/usr/local/bin and/usr/local/sbin. install SSH in the NT and Windows 2000 Server environments, available server software: Vshell, ssh2-2.4.0.win-server.

Vshell is a software package provided by Van Dyke that provides SSH2 servers in Windows NT/2000: // www.vandyke.com/download/index.html. Another SSH server running in Windows is SSHWinServer.exe, which can be downloaded directly from the ftp://ftp.ssh.com/pub/sshdirectory. The installation in Windows environment is very simple and will not be described in this article. Different from UNIX, server and client software packages must be installed separately in Windows. The client software running in Windows can also be downloaded from the above two sites, the file names are SecureCRT and SSHWin-2.4.0-pl2.
