I have a macintosh at home and I can do an ssh through macintosh tools and then open up tabs for multiple connections. I have used putty and the free version of SSH Secure Shell. Are there any free SSH tools for windows that allow me to open new connections with tabs instead of a new window?
PuTTY does not come with an SSH server. It can be used with Linux OpenSSH. For Windows and IBM z/OS mainframes, we recommend the Tectia SSH server.
Best known for its secure file transfer WinSCP is an open-source free SSH Client for Windows users. Besides SSH, it supports SFTP and SCP protocols to connect to your computer to a remote machine. It comes with an integrated text editor and can also integrate with PuTTY authentication agent.
