For windows, Putty looks good so far.
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
There is also Puttytel. Not sure what the difference is.
But both download as a .exe -- all you have to do is start it.
Now, however, comes the configuration nightmare.
The app wants a hostname. (It defaults to port 23.)
I can also choose one of raw/ssh/telnet.
So far, I've tried "ssh" and "telnet" with:
http://www.sourceforge.net
www.sourceforge.net
Both produce the error:
Unable to open connection.
Host does not exist.
(Specifying http protocol doesn't sound right, but what
then is the right protocol to specify? ssh? That doesn't
appear to work, either.)
