I have never been so excited to see an application drop as much as I am with this one. It’s so simple, but something I really needed. Now I can check on the servers from anywhere!!! I use PuTTY on my laptops and desktop constantly to monitor server loads and run commands on the servers and now I am excited that I can use my Pocket PC to do so as well.
It is a Windows CE port of famous PuTTY (free, BSD licensed open source SSH terminal for Windows). I started to port PuTTY as a part of my diploma thesis. After quite big success (10.000 downloads during 1st month after release), I decided to polish the code and open the source code widely to public. Sorry for the delay, but finally – here we are! Go ahead, download the binaries or the source codes and contribute! It is distributed under benevolent BSD license!
