Hi

Thanks for your suggestion.  I had found that page before but it seems 
to rerquire me to execute the conversion of the certificates on the 
OpenSSH server - and freeSSHd has no SSH functionality other than being 
a server - no commands, nothing :(

I will try puTTY…..

Cheers and thanks for being helpful :)
