Ask HN: Alternative for putty?
Hi folks,
Some times you can not run your workstation on linux for different reasons.
I am more and more unhappy with "putty" I currently use.
Why isn't there a actively maintained SSH Terminal Client for Windows?
Please list SSH Terminal Client for Windows you like!

- mattbillenstein 11y agoCygwin is essential if you spend any significant amount of time using a Windoze box...
- leonatan 11y agoSecureCRT is very good.
- opless 11y agoIf you find cygwin annoying and/or slow, try mingw. If you grab the official git windows client you get a mini-install with openssh which works fine :) I use putty myself, and if I'm only allowed to use a web browser, I'll just log into chrome and use the ssh client chrome extension (which seems to be still in beta a year later)

- a3n 11y agoI vote with the others: cygwin, and install openssh in that. You have the added benefit of having a bash command line (or zsh or whatever) to use as you like. But for your question, cygwin plus openssh is an excellent solution. Try it.
