Open Source Linux SSH Software

NxShell is a modern, Electron-based terminal emulator that works on all major operating systems out there: Windows, macOS, and Linux.

DotNetSSH is a pure .NET implementation of the SSH2 client protocol suite. DotNetSSH development is alive and active. DotNetSSH is a fork of Tamir's excellent SharpSSH, itself is a port of JCraft's java Jsch.

Kirisurf is an open-source internet traffic integrity protector based on SSH and SSL, with many innovations in traffic obfuscation and server distribution. It can be safely and reliably used to circumvent censorship in China. Please visit our website for downloads, as SourceForge downloads are packet-scanned in China and may be unreliable and/or hijacked.

Maverick .NET is an SSH API for the .NET platform written in C#. The project was originally a commercial API that was mothballed in 2009 due to resource constraints. We have now revived the project and released the SSH2 implementation under the GPLv3 license for open source developers.

Please use https://code.google.com/p/ganymed-ssh-2/ , as this current project is not getting the attention it should and therefore should be considered as 'parked'. Orion SSH for Java is a library which implements the SSH-2 protocol in pure Java. This is the new name, and home, for Trilead SSH (formerly Ganymed SSH2).

Paul Thomas's Performance Tuned SSH, aka PTssh. A cross-platform, high-performance, multi-threaded, thread-safe library implementing the SSH2 protocol and SFTP version 3.

The RBSEE (Remote Bash Script Execution Engine) is set of the bash script which allows user to send & execute scripts on a remote platform and then collect and assert results. Mainly used for test automation.

Inotifyfs is a set of scripts, primarily on bash to allow user keep remote and local folders synced in real time in efficient way based on inotify kernel evens and function in user space.

Python script for pushing the same configuration (stored in a predefined file) on multiple devices at the same time via SSHv2. The script reads the IPs of the devices from the NETWORK_IP file, then gets the SSHv2/Telnet credentials from the SSH_USERPASS file and sends the commands you enter in the CMD_FILE file to all the devices. The script also checks if all the needed files exist, if all the IP addresses are valid and if all the devices are reachable. Tools used: Python 2.7.3, GNS3, Linux.

ssh-pull-id is a command line tool that does what ssh-copy-id does but in the opposite direction: instead of pushing your ssh-id to another machine, it pulls another machine's ssh-id into your host. the tool was made with Ubuntu Touch in mind, because its default ssh config is such, that ssh-copy-id won't work. this is because Ubuntu Touch device does not accept ssh client with password authentication, but only with public key based authentication. and copy-ssh-id itself uses password authentication to connect first, then push public key to the remote host, so that later key based authentication can be used instead. ssh-pull-id will reverse the direction, now you use the tool to pull another host's public key. the typical scenario it was created for, is when you use it on Ubuntu Touch device, and pull is made from another host which allows password based authentication.
