Great tutorial! Everything I needed to get started with SSH, short and straight to the point.

[@mishrasidhant]

Wow! I love the way you structure your videos with a quick preview, complete breakdown of what to expect and amazing explanations! Thank you for such good content! 🙂

[@Berntisso]

Was it really that simple?! I was expecting spending hours with configuring and dealing with security stuff, and it's literally just two words in the command-line! *MINDBLOWN*

[@SimulationNPC]

You are the most clear and helpful linux content creator. Thank you for your guidance!

[@alexherget]

I use ssh all the time. Great vid. Big thumbs up! :)

[@AverageLinuxUser]

[@la_kukka]

Short Sweet and Straight forward!! Thank you

[@BrucesWorldofStuff]

Thanks for the video, I will have to give SSH a try... Looks neat to use...

[@AverageLinuxUser]

The easiest way to experience it is to create an account at UpCloud.com with promo code alu25. Watch the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/gXWZpYWVZbmisLM

Excellent video. Learned a lot. Many thanks!

Windows 10 have a built-in SSH Client, go to Settings > Apps > Apps and Features > Manage Optional Features

[@AverageLinuxUser]

Thanks. I don't use Windows so I had no idea. Many years ago when I used Windows, I used PuTTY

[@Turjak_art]

[@nkmicros540]

Good work, great content. I knew about ssh but I learned one more thing, I didn't know: "ssh -X....". =D

[@nkmicros540]

Great video as usual. I have a suggestion: Please don't make the linux terminal full screen when recording the screen, as sometimes when I want to follow and copy a command, pausing the video, youtube full screen has Header (with video title on it) and the footer (with video time line and the other controls on it) and these header or sometimes the footer covers the actual terminal line to type from. Thanks

[@AverageLinuxUser]

Alright! Thanks for pointing out this problem

[@AverageLinuxUser]

BTW, it may be more convenient to copy commands from the website averagelinuxuser.com/how-to-install-and-use-ssh-on-linux/

Best Linux KZbin channel ever!!

[@spaceiswater6539]

Great video, how would you ssh to a computer if its over the internet as I don't understand how to do it, as all the computers seem to have the same internet IP address which makes it impossible to choose a machine to ssh to?

[@spaceiswater6539]

@@rennessaince357 Thank you so much for your help, I will look into this.

[@AverageLinuxUser]

You can find your public IP at ifconfig.me but you also need to open ssh port in your router.

[@AverageLinuxUser]

Personally, I connect to my work network with my work VPN and then I access my work computer from within my work network with ssh

[@scottlinovitz2880]

Excellent video, thank you.

[@dimitristsoutsouras2712]

Hi...nice informative video. Question though...if someone is to access via putty his server not being at the local network (the client pc) how can you manage that? Tried to enter in Putty user_name@server_name but probably its common logic that Putty cant relate the server name with its IP on a remote site. Only with DDNS or something similar? I am talking about a server in a network with a dynamic IP setup PS ufw is enabled in case that matters

[@noel_curray]

Hi. What should I install if I want to connect to a laptop? openssh-client or openssh-server?

[@HK-sw3vi]

thanks a lot

[@GooogleGoglee]

How can you configure SSH with your own keys and certificates? Can you make a video on this?

[@AverageLinuxUser]

Yes, it's a topic for the next video

[@ixtirochiavlodlar]

Is It global connect or local connect?

[@chandruarul7941]

Is this work with two different ip address???

[@robitops1547]

awesome bro

[@AverageLinuxUser]

Thanks

[@dwd_0105]

which PuTTy version do i need to install for my windows client?

[@narayanaswamy9596]

Hi, I have private keys to connect my servers and one of my server is through password authentication. So I decided to generate a public key and place it in authorized_keys of that server. When I generate Public key. I'm not able to connect my remaining servers. I don't know what has happened could you please tell me I'm struggling 😔.

[@dimitristsoutsouras2712]

Also to my previous comment. i generated the ssh files from the server side (not from the client as in your video). Now when i issued the command ssh-copy-id -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub username@serveraddress i put ok the username (lets say it test) and the address of the server I was already logged in. In your write tutorial you mention that this command will create a file Well in mine with ls -a in home/user.name/.ssh it created a known_hosts file and not the authorized_keys file . Why is that?

[@Shirorim]

Can I share all screen with ssh? I want to connect another pc, raspery pi away.

[@anton-pavlov]

Thanks for the overview! waiting for VPN.

[@AverageLinuxUser]

Thanks. I will make a VPN video

[@eladgez2754]

can't get it to work, neither ssh or putty froma windows machine to an ubuntu one. it keeps saying acsses denied even though I'm 1000% sure its the right password, since i used it to log in to ubuntu in the first place. i don't know what else can i do.

[@amitkesari2000]

Tried to connect with my friend's pc...it refused the connection 🤷

[@YouTubeYouTube-qg6vl]

Ddr4 and ssd

[@deepstonecrypt]

Does this only work on local networks? Because I have tried to log in from ankther network and I could not establish a connection

[@serge5046]

Hello ALU ssh is not primarily used to transfer files so FileZilla and sftp through the file manager should have been covered in a video about FTP! You need to show SSHFS as well in your next video. You forgot to explain the options of lsof! You should have shown the config files of the server and where the keys are located. You should have explained the principles of the public key and the private key. All in all the will to have a video about ssh in less than 10 minutes is a bad idea. This guy has done a video only about ssh keys: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3eZe2CMhq2DrqM So if you make short videos about ssh you need to do at least five or six videos to cover the subject like theurbanpenguin did it. Cheers

[@AverageLinuxUser]

Hello Serge, Thanks for your comment. It's been a while. Your comments are always constructive. I will explain keys in the next video.

[@fxstreamer238]

stop pronouncing the "th" z. that doesnt make any sense
