Bitvise SSH Server 5.5

SSH server is designed for all Windows NT-series operating systems. Supported platforms include Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008, and 7. Both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows are supported. Even Windows NT4 is still supported by WinSSHD version 4.

SSH is a very flexible protocol, and many different types of services can run on top of it. Additionally, the protocol's open architecture allows these services to run all at the same time without impeding each other.

Main Features:

- Ease of use: Bitvise SSH Server was written specifically for the Windows platform so that it is easy to install and configure. In a regular Windows environment, it will work immediately upon installation with no configuring. (We do however recommend tightening down settings to restrict access only to those accounts and features that you use.)
- Unlimited connections: Bitvise SSH Server imposes no limits on the number of users who can connect, and gets no more expensive for a larger number of connections. The number of simultaneous connections is limited only by system resources!
- Windows groups: Bitvise SSH Server natively supports configurability through Windows groups. No need to define account settings for each Windows account individually. The SSH server knows what groups a user is in and, if configured, will use appropriate Windows group settings.
- Speed: SFTP transfer speed mostly depends on the client, but Bitvise SSH Server allows clients to obtain some of the fastest transfer speeds available. With Bitvise SSH Client, SFTP file transfer speeds in the tens of MB/s can be obtained.
- Virtual accounts: want to set up an SFTP server with many users, but don't want to create and manage 1000 Windows accounts? No problem. Bitvise SSH Server supports virtual accounts, created in SSH server settings, backed by the identity of one or more Windows accounts. SSH server settings for these accounts are also configurable on a virtual group basis.
- Excellent terminal support: Bitvise SSH Server provides the best terminal support available on the Windows platform. Our terminal subsystem employs sophisticated techniques to render output accurately like no other Windows SSH server. And when used with Bitvise SSH Client, our bvterm protocol supports the full spectrum of a Windows console's features: colors, Unicode characters, and large scrollable buffers.
- Flexibility: most SSH server features can be configured individually on a per-account basis from the user-friendly Bitvise SSH Server Control Panel. Using Bitvise SSH Client, the SSH server's Control Panel can be accessed and configured through the same user-friendly interface from any remote location.
- Server-side forwarding: with Bitvise SSH Server and Client, a server and multiple clients can be set up so that all port forwarding rules are configured centrally at the server, without requiring any client-side setting updates. The SSH clients only need to be configured once, and port forwarding rules can easily be changed when necessary.
- Scriptable settings: Using the supplied wcfg utility, all settings can also be configured from a text file, from a script or interactively from the command-line. Settings can also be configured programmatically through the BssCfgManip COM object.
- Multi-site support: Bitvise SSH Server supports multiple simultaneous, independent installations on the same server for customers needing completely separate sites for different groups of users. Multiple SSH serverversions can run concurrently, installed on separate sites. (A version prior to 4.10 will occupy the 'default' site.)
