PuTTY Portable is the popular PuTTY telnet and SSH client packaged as a portable app, so you can connect in to your systems on the go. You can place PuTTY Portable on your portable hard drive, iPod, USB flash drive or a CD and use it on any PC, without leaving any personal information behind.
PuTTY is a lightweight telnet and SSH client for Windows, along with an xterm terminal emulator. It allows you to securely connect to your systems while on the go.
What's New in This Release:
· Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication in SSH-2.
· Local X11 authorisation support on Windows. (Unix already had it, of course.)
· Support for non-fixed-width fonts on Windows.
· GTK 2 support on Unix.
· Specifying the logical host name independently of the physical network address to connect to.
· Crypto and flow control optimisations.
· Support for the [email protected] SSH-2 compression method.
· Support for new Windows 7 UI features: Aero resizing and jump lists.
· Support for OpenSSH AES-encrypted private key files in PuTTYgen.
· Bug fix: handles OpenSSH private keys with primes in either order.
· Bug fix: corruption of port forwarding is fixed (we think).
· Bug fix: various crashes and hangs when exiting on failure,
· Bug fix: hang in the serial back end on Windows.
· Bug fix: Windows clipboard is now read asynchronously, in case of deadlock due to the clipboard owner being at the far end of the same PuTTY's network connection (either via X forwarding or via tunnelled rdesktop).
