I agree, this is a plus for putty.  Especially for those roaming admins.  I
dispise having to leave the sanctuary that is my desk, and so don't take
advantage of it as often as I (maybe) should.

A solution for this situation is the SSH daemon for windows NT:

Maybe they'll have a port for windows 9x soon too.

No one has mentioned one of my favorite features of PuTTY yet.  It has
no installer because it doesn't need one it is one file which is about
200K so it is great to put on a utility disk or just download whenever
you need it from someone elses computer.  I can't count the number of
times when I have been away from any linux box that has ssh installed
and needed to login to a server that doesn't have telnet installed.  In
these cases PuTTY's small size and being only a single file come in very
handy.  Most of the time I have just downloaded it used it and deleted
it leaving almost no trace.  And beside all this it is the most xterm
like terminal handling I have found on any windows program.  PuTTY is
just plain cool.
