Description

Dropbear is a compact SSH server and client that operates on various Unix-like platforms. It is an open-source program released under an MIT-style license, making it accessible for developers. Its design is particularly advantageous for "embedded" Linux systems, like those found in wireless routers. For those interested in staying updated on new releases or engaging in discussions, a low-traffic mailing list is available for subscriptions. With an efficient memory footprint, Dropbear can be compiled into a statically linked binary of just 110kB using uClibc on x86 architecture, provided that only the essential options are selected. Additionally, the server supports X11 forwarding and authentication-agent forwarding for clients using OpenSSH. Users can compile the server, client, key generator, and key converter into a single executable, similar to busybox, with the ability to disable certain features during compilation to conserve space. The software also includes a multi-hop mode that allows SSH TCP forwarding, enabling users to tunnel through multiple SSH hosts seamlessly in a single command, demonstrating its versatility in various networking scenarios. This flexibility makes Dropbear a favored choice for projects requiring lightweight and efficient SSH solutions.

Description

PuTTY serves as a free software solution for SSH and Telnet on both Windows and Unix systems, also functioning as an xterm terminal emulator. This client application supports protocols including SSH, Telnet, Rlogin, and SUPDUP, which facilitate remote sessions on computers over a network. Essentially, it operates from the client side of these sessions, where users can view and interact with the remote system. For instance, if you launch PuTTY on a Windows device and establish a connection to a Unix server, a window will open for you. Any commands you enter in this window are transmitted directly to the Unix machine, and the responses from the server will appear in the same window. Consequently, it allows you to operate on the Unix system as if you were physically present at its terminal, even though you could be located in a different place entirely. Additionally, PuTTY permits users to save their configurations in named session profiles, while also giving them the option to modify the default settings that apply to new connections. This flexibility makes it a versatile tool for managing remote sessions effectively.
