I have a spare PC at my home which I'm panning on using for running CMMS software for work. I have everything setup for internet access and it's all working good.

The current system which I have Xampp installed on is Kubuntu 7.10 I may upgrade it later on to the newer version or give the actual server edition a test.

What I'm looking for now is a guide on installing and setting up the server with SSH access, so if someone can point me in the right direction it would be great!

I've already downloaded Putty for my laptop which is also using linux.

Thanks!

If you run on your Laptop also Linux you do not need Putty. Just open a Terminal and type:

Code: Select all

ssh ip-of-your-server

That's it

Eventually you have to install the SSH-Client with your Package Manager (what Linux is running on your Laptop?). Normally it should be installed already.

Thanks for he reply, I got ssh going a few minutes ago.

So far setting up every thing has been painless, I think I'll test out Ubuntu Server Edition or Cent OS this weekend.
