[geeklog-users] putty SSH install

[Tony Bibbs]

So you are trying to access your FreeBSD Box via SSH using putty.exe?  If 
so, explain what you need curl for?  As far as I know, curl is a package 
for socket communication over SSL which is not required by Geeklog.

So, to try and answer the question I think you are asking, go to 
google.com, search for "putty.exe", download it to your windows boxen (to 
your desktop is just fine) and run it.

I'm not sure about accessing the box via a Mac.  I'm assuming it ships 
with it's own SSH client.
