OpenSSH

Could someone help me with using SSH. I collocate 6 Internet servers and I need to modify some files, such as php.ini, and httpd.conf.

I also need to remotely install Image Magick.

I have never used SSH and I develop on a Windows box. What do I use to connect to my servers via SSH? Is there a special software?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

just use any ssh client you want. plain old "ssh" in unix, or a client like puTTY in windows. once youre' connected, what you do is up to you... software installation is just as trivial as it is locally.

Thanks much Chris. You were right. Quick and easy.

Is there somewhere I can go to find a list of commands to use once I have logged in. For example, I would like to add a line of code to my php.ini file. I can get to the directory where the file is, but I would like to display the contents before editing.

I have searched for these commands but with no luck.

there should be a link to a list of commands in the links section of this site.
