The below manipulations are only relevant if you have an existing account on the PC you want to connect toand if a SSH server is installed.

When using Linux the procedure is simpler as the client part is already configured (for most distributions).Open a terminal and type the following command:

ssh login:password@the_PC_you_want_to_connect_toor

login@(the_PC_you_want_to_connect_to)Once the client PC accepts the connection, you will be prompted to enter the password.To login in graphical mode (using X server) you must use the -X option

Using SSH through a proxy:First have the proxy package installed:

sudo aptitude install proxy-connectmodify the/etc/ssh/ssh_config file to allow the use of SSH through the proxy:sudo echo 'ProxyCommand /usr/bin/connect-proxy -4 -S myproxy.domain.com:port %h %p' >> /etc/ssh/ssh_config

Note: Make sure to replace myproxy.domain.com and the port by the name of your proxy and the port number.
