SSH with Windows Terminal - Don't use PuTTY

In this video, I will show you how to set up and use the Windows Terminal for connecting to SSH servers. I will cover the basics of SSH and how to use the Windows Terminal to establish a secure connection to a remote server. We will also demonstrate how to customize and save connections for easy access in the future.

Terminal works for standard connections, but to my WANservers I like to connect with SSH keys protected with FIDO, only Putty-CAC seems to do that for the moment on windows.
Also if I like to do file uploads through SFTP, WINSCP integrates with Putty-CAC authentication through pageant allowing to SFTP wit WINSCP to my server using my FIDO key.
It also integrates with mRemoteNG, giving me a great list and tabbed interface to connect to all my servers, using SSH, RDP, VNC, HTTP(S).

So Windows Terminal is great for a lot of users, but Putty and especially Putty-CAC still has its place for a lot of sysadmins.

Hi Fabio, this is very helpful content, so thanks. For me, renaming the file from ssh_config to config worked. but i am using windows 10, may be that's why? not sure but i have been doing the same in linux too using config file. i have used ssh_config file for CLIENT configuration (in windows, (in linux/unix, /etc/ssh/ssh_config).
I havenot used windows 11 so good to know. its kind of frustrating that same open source software needs to be configured differently with OS :(

For me in Windows 11 filename config worked instead of ssh_config
