I still prefer to use my MacBook Air for work, just because I can type ssh web and start working with my server right away.Ĭould it be even better in regards to SSH? Just when I could definitely answer “No”, I got an email from a client, who was asking for instructions on how to generate SSH key for use with FileZilla to connect to their server.Īfter trying to recap the proper instructions for them, I found how I could improve my own use of SSH in OS X, and also make it more secure. And the native OpenSSH client is the killer feature.įast forward to 2019, and my failure to build a proper Hackintosh using high-end PC components, rendered it useful only for mostly one thing at present – watching movies on Windows. Working with CLI in OS X feels much like Linux. When I got more familiar with the use of SSH keys for password-less login, I became a happier SSH user.Ī few years later, I started using OS X and initiating SSH connections from it felt awkward without Putty, until I discovered iTerm.īut getting more familiar with the OS X system itself, I found myself really hooked up to it for mainly one reason – it’s built from FreeBSD. Historical backgroundīack in the days when I started learning SSH, I used Windows and Putty.
