Ditto - PuTTY has been rock-solid for me. I use it currently on Win2K & WinXP. If you're having problems using PuTTY the problem is likely elsewhere. But as this is the FreeBSD mailing list, you can most certainly use the ssh client here as well: ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] One diff I've noticed: In the case of a changed key, PuTTY's default is to issue a warning, and allow the user to decide whether or not to continue the connection; the OpenSSH client's default is to abort the connection.
