Downloads

Download PuTTY, WinSCP2, PSCP and PSFTP here.
Just create a folder called "C:\Program Files\Putty" and place the files in that folder. You can execute putty and winscp2 from there, or you can place shortcuts to them on the desktop. PSCP and PSFTP are run only from the command line.

How to Use PuTTY

VNC viewer for Windows -- download "vncviewer.exe".
