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.

Why don't you use just the ssh client that comes with the base system? Log into your FreeBSD box and type ssh hostname to connect to any other system.
