Re: Putty client
Unless you are running Windows as a workstation, you don't need it.
If what you're trying to accomplish is "Open a Secure Shell from Linux (Mint) to an Secure Shell Server", then open the terminal of your choice in Linux and use ssh.
type:
man ssh (from a terminal)
or

Hope this helps.

Re: Putty client
it was recommended that I get that as way to bypass the throttling imposed by bell/rogers for p2p traffic.

Did they suggest Putty specifically or just one of the protocols used by Putty? Methinks this source isn't very reliable...

Re: Putty client
Looks like you just want ssh tunneling. Just google "ssh tunneling ubuntu" and there should be plenty of tutorials to use. Here's a pretty simple one that should work:

Re: Putty client
if you are needing to connect to another terminal or client simply open terminal and do
ssh Username@ip.of.server
ssh Username@ip.of.server

Re: Putty client
The first place I _always_ look is in the package system (synaptic), before I look at unknown websites for installing/compiling packages by hand.
BTW... That was a hint.

guess I should have checked there first, I looked in the software package manager but it wasn't there, never thought to look at the package manager.
