Telnet/SSH

By TechSerf ·
so far, i can only telnet into my xp pc. how do i set it up so i can connect with SSH from an app like Putty.exe?
also, once i do connect with either of these, what can i do other than just DOS commands? i want a way to download files from my remote machine. thanks.

Have you considered that your requirements indicate some sort of "tremote control", instead of "just" Telnet?

I highly recomemnd VNC from AT&T:

On the other hand, if what you really want to do is download from the XP box, then why not just setup and configure the FTP server?

Nothing beats a real standard.

(with the usual caveats about re-assembling this URI, removing spaces, etc.)
