This article describes how to Enable SSH Server for Remote Login on Debian Linux 9.8.0
The Debian Project is an association of individuals who have made common cause to create a free operating system. This operating system that we have created is called Debian.
An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. At the core of an operating system is the kernel. The kernel is the most fundamental program on the computer and does all the basic housekeeping and lets you start other programs.
Debian systems currently use the Linux kernel or the FreeBSD kernel. Linux is a piece of software started by Linus Torvalds and supported by thousands of programmers worldwide. FreeBSD is an operating system including a kernel and other software.
However, work is in progress to provide Debian for other kernels, primarily for the Hurd. The Hurd is a collection of servers that run on top of a microkernel (such as Mach) to implement different features. The Hurd is free software produced by the GNU project.
A large part of the basic tools that fill out the operating system come from the GNU project; hence the names: GNU/Linux, GNU/kFreeBSD, and GNU/Hurd. These tools are also free.
Secure Shell (SSH) is a cryptographic network protocol for operating network services securely over an unsecured network.[1] Typical applications include remote command-line, login, and remote command execution, but any network service can be secured with SSH.
SSH, also known as Secure Shell or Secure Socket Shell, is a network protocol that gives users, particularly system administrators, a secure way to access a computer over an unsecured network. SSH also refers to the suite of utilities that implement the SSH protocol. Secure Shell provides strong authentication and encrypted data communications between two computers connecting over an open network such as the internet. SSH is widely used by network administrators for managing systems and applications remotely, allowing them to log into another computer over a network, execute commands and move files from one computer to another.
SSH connections have been used to secure many different types of communications between a local machine and a remote host, including secure remote access to resources, remote execution of commands, delivery of software patches and updates and other administrative or management tasks.
The SSH server is the counterpart to the client. The term is also used here for the software. Much of the client software also works on servers. In addition, there is software designed exclusively for SSH servers. It is normal to start SSH on servers when you start up the computer. This guarantees that you can access the server from outside at any time via SSH.
Strictly speaking, it isn’t necessary for the SSH server to be located in a remote data center. Users can also install an SSH server on their own PC at home to benefit from the advantages of port forwarding, for example.
The SSH client is usually your own PC that you want to use to establish a connection to the server. To achieve this, you can or must (depending on the operating system) install separate software that establishes an SSH connection. These programs are also usually called SSH clients. The fee-based Tectia SSH comes from SSH communication security and additionally contains a server software. But there are also numerous free alternatives, such as the open source software, PuTTy for Windows and Linux, or lsh, which works on all operating systems based on Unix.
