Questions about installing/configuring SSH

allocate · 07-14-2003, 02:38 PM

Sorry if this is terribly dumb, but I've tried to google around a bit as well as search these forums for an answer and I've been unsuccessful so far.

I'm running Redhat 9, and trying to figure out where to get a hold of an SSH server (I'd like to connect to my personal box from work.) I tried ssh.com but it seems like they're a commercial company and I'd like to not spend any money. Can anybody tell me about popular SSH servers and/or where to find information about setting one up?

Thanks

You can get the RH9 rpm here:
ftp://fr.rpmfind.net/linux/redhat/9/...5p1-6.i386.rpm

Or compile it from source from:
http://www.openssh.org

I think that you can find ssh server on your distribution cd.

And btw every *.com domain are commercial.

That isn't true, not every .com is commercial. They just sell and hope the registrant uses it as a commerical site, but its not mandatory.

Example: www.openssh.com is also www.openssh.org
