    - Fixed a public key signature verification issue, where verification of a valid signature would fail in about 0.4% of valid public key authentication attempts

    - Server-to-client port forwarding sockets are now created with the SO_REUSEADDR flag. This appears to fix a problem where Windows would not release an S2C listening socket after it has already been closed, preventing a reestablished client session from be

    - When WinSSHD starts, it sets a long, cryptographically random password for the Windows account used for WinSSHD virtual accounts. When account password complexity requirements were enabled in Windows, previous WinSSHD versions could sometimes fail to sta

    Couldn't agree more. This is a great SSH server - been using it for years on a Win2K3 server and it's solid as a rock and full of features. Their free client Tunnelier is also a pleasure to use.

    Amazing! The shear number of options available dwarfs every other free offering I have tried (freeSSHd, Core FTP, MobaSSH, Sysax). It's important to note the word "free", because when installing you can choose to install under a Personal licence, which is free and HARDLY crippled compared to their standard product. (oh, and remember to configure your firewall correctly!)
