The Secure Shell (SSH) protocol and the OpenSSH project have been around for decades on Linux. But OpenSSH on Windows hasn’t been embraced in the Windows world until recently. As such, a Windows Server doesn’t typically come pre-built and ready to go and requires some setup.
My wacky brain is too dumb to understand the documentation so i thought of creating .ps1 files for ease of usage.
This repo has some powershell 7 files which can be run as adminstrator to install OpenSSH in Windows Server/10/11. This powershell code was written in reference with the OpenSSH Manual and the Microsoft Docs about OpenSSH.
- A windows machine (host)
- A local machine with
Powershell 7.1
- Go through all the
.ps1files before executing any of them - most of the files require elevated access so it's better to run them as
administrator
I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY PROBLEM IN YOUR DEVICE IF YOU RUN THESE FILES.
