First time I've come across you. Such a clear explanation and good graphics too; well done.
I have one problem - I don't have a password to get into my 'remote' windows 10 computer but I am still asked for one for the SSH link! Nothing works. Any ideas?
Do you have another video that extends this with the use of private and public keys?

[adamasimolowo]

pretty similar to FTP but SSH is more secure, wish I knew this before. was utilizing FTP to transfer files from local location to remote location.

Great video, really love the demonstration. I have a question though, can the scp be used to copy items from a window to linux machine?

[xbitbybit]

Did exactly that, but refuses to connect, despite the password being correct, any ideas?

What can I do if my PC does not have a password but it asks me for one, what do I put in that step?

I don’t have Remote Desktop Connection. What is the other options please??

[sunilvidwans]

[knowledgeadda]

[meganweber]

Can Remote Desktop Connection on Windows connect to Mac?

[SurattuDurgaprasad]

So helpful, can we do passwordless ssh between both windows machines(client-server)??

[pjmclenon]

Hello Tonny, can you make Caddy server VS nginx and apache? recently i came cross with caddy server people are saying faster than nginx

[tovis_bratsburg]

Can you add keys and shut off password?

[raxmatjonsulaymonov]

you can copy file with clipboard, what is the meaning of using SSH?

[joel-rgxm]

Awesome, thx, will be very useful. How can I assign a static IP address to the remote computer so I can connect to it on a daily basis?
