Tell that to the billion-or-so Windows computers that are straightforwardly managed and remoted-into with Active Directory, SMB, and Remote Desktop. Not to mention group policies, registry files, and PowerShell.
- pjc50 3y agoIt's interesting that these are completely orthogonal approaches. The UNIX world took a lot longer to develop fleet management tools, and when it did they came from a headless server point of view rather than the "hundreds of anonymous desktop machines" point of view. Powershell remoting achieves similar management objectives to ssh but is a very different interface.
