Windows – How to open an SSH Tunnel from a Windows client as a background program

sshwindows

I would like a Win machine to tunnel into an SSH server whenever the machine starts up. I also want the win machine to reboot the SSH program if it ever crashes. The lighterweight & more stable the SSH program, the more happier I am.

What options do I have with this?

Best Solution

Look at using srvany to launch the SSH client as a windows service. Then you can set the service to start up automatically when Windows start.

Essentially, srvany.exe will let you launch any program from the windows service control manager.
