That is what I call a fast answer :-). Only 10 Minutes! Thank you, Markus and Stefan. I will try the ssh-clients. What I didn't know is that Cyqwin includes a XServer.
Yes it is very nice, but like MiX it leaves open ports that you should try to close off with configuration or personal firewall settings. While you are downloading Cygwin you should get its openssh package which includes a modern ssh client. It will be less trouble generating and copying keys than putty, and also has an ssh-agent which is a timesaver to have on your PC. Hope this is useful. dproc
