PuTTY, or putty, is an open sourced terminal emulator that can control SSH connections, as well as transfer files across a network, and act as a serial console.
Putty uses port 22, the same as telnet and ssh.
You do not need to install PuTTY in Linux as there are built-in utilities that can do PuTTY's job (ssh, telnet)
ssh or telnet in company environment mostly we used ssh and there is one tool called putty, through putty we can connect.
You can open an SSH on your own computer by downloading and installing the PuTTY software. You can get this software for free from websites such as SourceForge.
It will require you to SSH to the router rather than telnet. You will have to use a program like Putty or some other SSH client.
Putty is a small program that is used to connect to a server using SSH or Telnet protocols. Available for Windows and Unix platforms. See Related Links for the Putty home page.
putty is an application program; Unix is an operating system (they aren't the same thing). putty is a secure telnet replacement using ssh to encrypt the data transmission flow.
PuTTY is a program for Microsoft Windows that allows you to control a computer running a Linux or Unix-based operating system via SSH using a command-line interface.
Most Unix/Linux servers allow SSH (via putty). There is no general one that anyone can use, however. You need to talk to your provider to see what is available to you.
you can use any program that supports ssh (secure shell) in windows you have putty and in mac os you use terminal to do that
I am assuming you mean either a POSIX shell or a way to SSH into a Linux box. A POSIX shell is as simple as installing MinGW, which will usually also provide BASH, usually for scripts. For SSH you can just use PuTTY and connect to your Linux box (Assuming it has an SSH server running.) that way.
PuTTY cannot directly support running graphical programs. If you install an X server on your computer, such as Xming, you can then enable X11 forwarding in PuTTY, under the SSH menu. Check the box labeled "Enable X11 forwarding" and set the X display location to ":0". You should then be able to run gedit.
