Re:Windows Server 2019 Includes OpenSSH by pmontra on Wednesday December 12, 2018 @02:25AM (#18662003)
The point of ssh is that I can easily manage some Windows boxes from a Linux server.

A customer of mine fires up servers to run tasks on them. A few of those tasks are programs that unfortunately run only on Windows (the pain of updating those boxes!) I install ssh to be able to perform some basic operations on them and move files over sftp. Hopefully an integrated ssh server works better (issues with terminal, etc.)

I understand that this is not a scenario Microsoft would advocate in the past, but eventually Microsoft lost the war for servers so it's giving us interoperability tools now.
