Various software implementations of the SSH standard exist for most major operating systems. On OS X (Apple) and Linux the most widely used client is OpenSSH, a command line application which normally comes installed by default on these platforms. For Windows, individuals have to install an SSH client on their own: the two most common options are [http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ PuTTY] and [http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/download-home-edition.html MobaXTerm]. To use any of these implementations of SSH successfully, you need to know (1) the name of the machine to which you want to connect, (2) your userid and (3) your password. | Various software implementations of the SSH standard exist for most major operating systems.
