First, you download OpenSSH<\/a>; choose the correct version, 32 or 64-bit.<\/p>\n

Unpack the archive to C:\\Program Files<\/em>\\OpenSSH\u00a0<\/i>for 64-bit, to C:\\Program Files (x86)\\OpenSSH<\/em> for 32-bit<\/p>\n

In my case, I use the 64-bit version.<\/p>\n

From the administrative side, we run the install-sshd.ps1 script is located in this program directory and will install the application as a service. I run PowerShell, and here are my actions:<\/p>\n\n

\ncd "C:\\Program Files\\OpenSSH"\npowershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File install-sshd.ps1\npowershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File FixHostFilePermissions.ps1\npowershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File FixUserFilePermissions.ps1\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n

Start service<\/p>\n\n
\nnet start sshd\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n
At<\/span> startup<\/span>, the host<\/span> keys<\/span> will be<\/span> automatically<\/span> generated<\/span> (<\/span>if<\/span> missing<\/span>)<\/span> in<\/span> %programdata%\\ssh<\/i><\/p>\n\n

I will<\/span> use<\/span> a key<\/span> to<\/span> connect and <\/span>disable<\/span> password<\/span> access<\/span>.<\/span> To<\/span> do this<\/span>, I will edit<\/span> the file <\/span>C:\\ProgramData\\ssh\\sshd_config<\/i><\/p>\n\n
\nPasswordAuthentication no\nPubkeyAuthentication yes\n<\/pre><\/div>\n\n

Create the .ssh<\/em> directory in the user folder, and the authorized_keys<\/em> file is in it. We record the public keys there. To create a folder .ssh<\/em>, use the command mkdir .ssh<\/em><\/p>\n\n

Try to connect to the server. If you can’t connect, use ssh -v username@yourserver on the client’s side, and start the ssh server in debug mode sshd -d. If you got in trouble with a connection using a public key, please visit this page.<\/a><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
