Chocolatey

Install Chocolatey

Install with PowerShell...

Note: With PowerShell, you must ensure Get-ExecutionPolicy is not Restricted. We suggest using Bypass to bypass the policy to get things installed or AllSigned for quite a bit more security.

Run:

Get-ExecutionPolicy.

If it returns Restricted, then run:

Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned
# or
Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process

Then run:

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force; [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072; iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://community.chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

@powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Command "iex ((new-object net.webclient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))" && SET PATH=%PATH%;%systemdrive%\chocolatey\bin

Installing OpenSSH on Windows 10
https://dejulia489.github.io/2017-05-07-InstallingOpenSSHOnWindows10/

Installs to:

C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\openssh

Reinstall:

choco install openssh --params "/SSHServerFeature" --force

Install opensshd

Script:

"C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64\install-sshd.ps1"

Install with:

powershell -file "C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64\install-sshd.ps1"

Generate host private keys:

 "C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64\ssh-keygen.exe" -A

Access to those hosts private keys

   Get-ChildItem -Path 'C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64\ssh_host_*_key' | % {    
	   $acl = get-acl $_.FullName
	   $ar = New-Object  System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule("NT Service\sshd", "Read", "Allow")
	   $acl.SetAccessRule($ar)
	   Set-Acl $_.FullName $acl
	}

TODO:

• need to comment out these to not break:

#Match Group administrators
#       AuthorizedKeysFile __PROGRAMDATA__/ssh/administrators_authorized_keys

Firewall:

New-NetFirewallRule -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 22 -Direction Inbound -Action Allow -DisplayName SSH

Auto start service after reboot:

Set-Service SSHD -StartupType Automatic
Set-Service SSH-Agent -StartupType Automatic

Might need to copy default config:

dir "C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64\sshd_config"
# if not found...
Copy-Item "C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64\sshd_config_default" "C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64\sshd_config"

Modify the Password Authentication and add the Powershell Subsystem

$FilePath = "C:\Program Files\OpenSSH-Win64\sshd_config"
$FileData = (Get-Content $FilePath).Replace('#PasswordAuthentication yes','PasswordAuthentication yes')
#  $FileData += 'Subsystem	powershell C:\Program Files\PowerShell\6.0.0-alpha.18\powershell.exe -sshs -NoLogo -NoProfile' 
$FileData += 'Subsystem powershell C:\Program Files\PowerShell\7\powershell.exe -sshs -NoLogo -NoProfile'
$FileData | Out-File $FilePath -Force

Restart service:

Restart-Service sshd

NOTE: If service fails to start, check event log.

Remote to Linux server:

Enter-PSSession -HostName $LinuxServerIP -UserName administrator

Query service:

sc query sshd
