An SSH server allows you to connect remotely to the host which executes and power through an SSH client to connect and perform maintenance tasks or other.

Installing the SSH server
So you need a computer running an operating system based on Ubuntu, it should be a server or a workstation.

Open a Terminal

Write the following command: sudo apt-get install openssh-server

Press ENTER and enter your system password

You are now able to connect to this computer using an SSH client.

Many users of telnet, rlogin, FTP, or other similar programs, do not realize that their password is transmitted across networks in cleartext. OpenSSH figure all traffic (passwords included). OpenSSH also provides a variety of authentication methods. As its name suggests, OpenSSH is developed under the project OpenBSD

If you want to access your PC from another location you must convert it into a server in advance. install the package openssh-server on your computer.

By default, it runs at startup.

To activate it type this:
