Generally, on windows, you will grab Putty from: http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/...-installer.exe

Then open it, and type in the IP address of the server you want to connect. Then use the command:

Code:

cat /whatever/your/path/and/filename/is

you might want to add the | less command to the end of the cat:

ex:

Code:

cat /path/to/whatever | less

this allows for the terminal to stop at each full page of data to be displayed. making life a bit simpler on the reader. it also allows for searching via /foo were foo is the search item then n will take you to the next iteration of the search foo.

This is the same as lleb's , but 'direct'

Code:

less /path/to/whatever

this means that should you need to, you can edit the file ( by 'typing' v )

"less" will then launch the default console editor.

But you will probably want to 'read up' on some of the Linux basics before you go editing files
