OpenSSH finally arrived in Windows 10 with April 2018 Update

OpenSSH on Windows 10: Windows 10 is starting to turn into a very useful platform Unix/Linux. Microsoft's operating system originally incorporated the Subsystem for Linux from the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, and in the latest Windows 10 April 2018 Update, the company added a native Secure Shell (SSH) to Windows.OpenSSH

It took a long time as Microsoft started working on it of OpenSSH in PowerShell since 2015 due to user demand.

In the end, however, you will no longer need SSH clients of third-party manufacturers, such as Putty, to connect to a system that has a SSH server. The OSSSH is a collection of client / server utilities, and provides developers and system administrators with the ability to use secure remote connection, remote file transfer, and public and private key management with any OpenSSH server system.

OpenSSH is commonly used on BSD, Linux, MacOS and Unix servers, but can be used on any platform (even Windows 10) with SSH.
Microsoft reportedly has the latest version of OpenSSH, OpenSSH 7.7, as a default in Windows 10 April 2018 Update. The OpenSSH server is also available, but you need to install it.

For full instructions on how to use the app, you can visit the OpenSSH page. The most common way to use the application to connect to a remote server is with the following command:

ssh [user]@[host]:[port]

ή ssh giorgos@iguru.gr:22

If this is your first connection to this SSH server, the host's key fingerprint will be displayed and you will be asked to confirm that you want to connect. If you answer yes, the of the host will be stored in the hidden file %UserProfile%\.ssh\known_hosts so when you connect next time, you will not be prompted again.

Then you need to provide the code . Αμέσως μετά εφόσον όλα τα στοιχεία που δσατε είναι σωστά, θα συνδεθείτε με τον απομακρυσμένο διακομιστή για να προγραμματίσετε ή να εκτελέσετε system management.

When done, type "exit" to close the connection.
