Comments about OpenSSH as an Alternative to Tera Term
OpenSSH is not serial terminal client! Tera Term only provides functionality of OpenSSH via plugin.


- OpenSSH is Free and Open Source
















OpenSSH has nothing to do with Tera Term. Tera Term is a serial terminal. OpenSSH is a SSH/network server. They are entirely different in function, not even remotely related.
