how to use CRT from windows on linux
 
Hey guys, i was wondering how would i use crt on linux to connect to something like telnet?

Bump

Or something that will permit me to do the same

I've never used CRT, but putty is similar. Google for putty and you can download it for windows. It's only about a meg. From there you just enter in the IP address or hostname of the linux box you are trying to reach and choose ssh as the protocol. After you hit connect you'll be prompted for a username and password.

On the linux box you need to make sure that ssh is running, which most distros have it running by default, and also that your firewall will allow traffic to port 22 if you are running a firewall.

i want it on linux so i can connect to something else, sorry if i was a bit unclear

Oh. You already have it then. If you want to connect to another computer using the ssh protocol then do this:
Code:

ssh -l username IP_ADDR
You need to change the IP_ADDR to the ip address or host name of the computer you are connecting to. You need to change 'username' to the username you want to sign in with. The "-l username" is optional. If you leave it out it will try to connect with the username you are currently logged in as.

Is that more what you were looking for? If you type 'man ssh' it will give you more options you can use.
