Cygwin has all of those things and ssh server support.
- cturner 11y agoFair. But I couldn't target my crappy roguelikes at cygwin - requires complicated third-party installs. I ran cygwin-with-ssh heavily for a while in 2003. It was a hell of a thing to get it going. Then I had trouble getting it to work on a new computer and gave up. Shouldn't be surprised that it got good again.
- nacs 11y agoTry Babun [1] for a pre-configured Cygwin setup with an easy install. I've been using it for the past month or so and it works great. [1]: http://babun.github.io/ http://babun.github.io/

- lucb1e 11y ago> complicated third-party installs Wait, isn't that nearly everything you ever install on Windows? Not complicated per se, but everything is third party and not signed by people maintaining Windows (as with most GNU/Linux distributions).
- MartinCron 11y agoChocolately helps with at least the "complicated" part. Has helped me fall in love with Windows (7) again.
- 72deluxe 11y agoDon't MSI packages help?
- zymhan 11y agoI don't know many sysadmins who would use Cygwin to handle remote access to production servers.
- mhurron 11y agoThey're over at /r/sysadmin.
- tacticus 11y ago/r/sysadmin is more populated by the winadmins who would give up their gui only after death.
- nrser 11y agothere's a dude there asking how to pick an email address. i'm pretty sure it's serious. <http://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/38ba26/professional_personal_email_when/> http://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/38ba26/professiona...
- voidlogic 11y agoA while back when I was responsible for windows boxes they ran ssh and RDP, there were plenty of times when machines were un-RDP-able but I could still SSH in and fix the saddness.
