moin, moin,

I've got a few to try out.

Looks like the overall opinion is that PuTTY rocks. TerraTerm/SSH was also
given recommendations and MindTerm is an available Java implementation.

PuTTY - http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
TerraTerm/SSH - http://www.zip.com.au/~roca/ttssh.html
MindTerm - http://www.mindbright.se/mindterm/

PuTTY - 200k, fits on a floppy, is a single file, so can easily be run
from any m$ box.

TerrrTerm/SSH - good extension to excellent TerraTerm Open Source
terminal emulator. Has install script. If I remember correctly the
TerraTerm dudes also had an X server for m$. Don't remember if that was
free.

MindTerm - java, so works in many places ( including my Psion, guess I'll
have to add the java engine now :). It's GPL'd.

One thing I noted while looking for MindTerm is that PuTTY is under UNIX
utils at Yahoo :).

http://dir.yahoo.com/Computers_and_Internet/Communications_and_Networking/Software/Unix_Utilities/Ssh__Secure_Shell_/

Seems funny is listed as a win32 client :).

ciao,
