PSSSH

This is a PowerShell library and module to implement an SSH/SCP/SFTP client usable from PowerShell. This uses the Renci.SSHClient library (http://sshnet.codeplex.com/), and the Ionic.Zlib library (https://github.com/jstedfast/Ionic.Zlib). I have to give credit to the POSH-SSH project (https://github.com/darkoperator/Posh-SSH) for insperation and the ability to learn how to create PowerShell snapins using C#.

PSSSH is licensed under the Fair Source 50 license; if you are a small company, non-commercial user, or only have less than 50 people using this library then you are free to use, modify, and distribute the code within the limits of the license. If you have more than 50 uses of this library please contact me for licensing information.

Requirements

Usage

Just like any PowerShell module or commandlet, using

Get-Help {Commandlet}
