Hi,
I personally use teraterm, but my version is a few months out of date, they might have changed something.

Subject: which ssh client for windows?

hello all:
Here are my thoughts, I'm curious if anyone has used these and can give me some insite. First, I used CRT for quite some time, I seem to have lost my key for 4.1 and a copy costs $100. For me, that's quite a lot of money especially at this time. I really liked 4.1 because the prompt was at the bottom and everything just sort of scrolled down so it'd append to the bottom. Now half the screen is empty until your screen is full, but I could deal with that, were it not for the $100. So I moved on to greener pastures, or so I hoped. I first tried openssh.
This works except for a few  problems.
First, when I am using something like irssi it will read the last line, then it reads everything else (the bottom two status lines). This is kind of irritating, especially when I am in a room with a lot of chatter. Jaws, for whatever reason also just kind of hangs after a while, and only displays like the bottom line from a chat 10 or so messages back. The only solution to this is to detach screen, exit and restart openssh. Second, I usually have 3 sometimes four ssh windows open at a time. Using openssh, even when you use title from the command prompt, you have a administrator: C:title Last, it seems to have issues with ppk pairs with no passwords. I usually just use ppk pairs and cycle them out every month; I get a stronger authentication and I can just quickly log in. This is especially nice due to a bug I've found in scp where sometimes it will ask for the password and you won't know, until you realize that your files are not saving. So, next I moved on to Teraterm. I've tried this before, but I wanted to give it a shot, again. I'm noticing two issues with this, mainly the fact that jaws, even with the script does not read output. I'm also having trouble finding how to save connections and set a public-private key pair for login so that I can just click on a connection and log in. This may be a feature that TT itself is lacking, or it may just be me. Any sort of ideas would be excellent, in any case, to make one of these work better.
