PuTTY als Linux-Alternative zu PuTTY
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
PuTTY is a direct, native Linux port of the Windows tool you already know. It handles SSH, Telnet, Rlogin, and serial connections with the same lightweight footprint and keyboard-driven workflow. If you rely on PuTTY for quick remote access without the overhead of a full terminal emulator, this is a drop-in replacement. The interface remains simple and resource-efficient, making it ideal for sysadmins who prefer a minimal client. You retain public-key auth and port forwarding, so your existing muscle memory carries over perfectly to the Linux environment.

Ihre PuTTY-Dateien öffnen
PuTTY session files are typically stored as plain text or XML depending on the version and platform. While the Linux port aims for consistency, direct import of Windows .reg or .putty files may not be automatic. You may need to manually recreate sessions or use a conversion script if your profiles are complex. Basic connection details (host, port, username) are easily re-entered.

- Install PuTTY from your Linux distribution’s package manager or Flathub
- Launch the application and verify it opens correctly
- Create new session profiles for your frequent hosts
- Configure authentication methods (password or key) for each profile
