Bitvise SSH Server (WinSSHD) is a professional software application designed specifically for remote administration of Windows servers. It comes with support for SCP, SFTP, port forwarding and rich-featured console, as well as VPN using the TCP/IP tunneling feature.

The configuration steps can be carried out in three main steps (server, Windows accounts and virtual accounts), and detailed information is offered for each parameter, so even rookies can learn to tweak the program’s features.

When it comes to basic server settings, you can pick the IP versions for listening port to accept IPv4 connections, IPv6 connections or both of them. You can add the listening port, automatically configure the router, open port to local networks or any computer, as well as enable trace logging.

What’s more, you can allow login to any Windows account and add a new one by selecting the Window account type (local, domain or Microsoft) and account name, as well as enabling logins, public keys, file transfers, terminal and port forwarding options. The tool reveals a list with the Windows accounts and lets you copy, edit or remove them.

Virtual accounts can be configured as Windows ones, and they are suitable for clients that require file transfer or port forwarding but not terminal shell or remote program execution.

Bitvise SSH Server (WinSSHD) allows you to start and stop the server and manage its host key pairs, password cache and settings. In order to learn more about each configuration aspect, you can click on the question mark icons. What’s more, you can import or export the server configuration settings and manage password cache.

The tool monitors and displays your active sessions in a dedicated panel. You can detailed information about each session, such as ID, remote IP and port, connection time, client version, account and account type. What’s more, you can disconnect the selected session, block IPs, and manage blocked IPs.

Bitvise SSH Server (WinSSHD) keeps logs including summary of recent server activities. You are allowed to open the log folder and enable popup notifications for different events, such as rejected or accepted connections, failed or successful authentications, file transfer, and ended connections.

Power users may tweak advanced settings that affect the server as a whole and algorithms the SSH server supports in establishing and maintaining an SSH session. You can alter user authentication, automatic IP blocking, key re-exchange and session timeout.

Last but not least, you can pick the Windows domain order, forward outbound connections through a proxy, as well as control which Windows users can log in through the SSH server to create virtual accounts, control Internet addresses and configure what SSH services users can access.

Bitvise SSH Server (WinSSHD) comes with an impressive suite of features for helping you get access to your personal computer from a remote location. The intuitive layout and detailed tips make this program suitable for all types of users, regardless of their experience level.
