Overview:

SSH uses strong encryption to protect a complete remote shell session from malicious security crackers. End-to-end security is provided from the beginning of the session until it terminates, as the client contacts the server and establishes a session-specific encryption key exchange before the username and password are even transmitted from one machine to another. Longtime Linux administrators know that SSH, the "Secure Shell" protocol, is one of the most handy and potentially critical utilities in their software toolbox. This download explains how OpenSSH, an open source implementation of SSH, works and how it can play an important role in your Linux environment. What is your current choice for SSH implementation? How important is SSH to your organization?

This download is also available as a TechRepublic article and is available on the TechRepublic Linux 101 Wiki page.
