How to set up your windows machine as a secure server

• Download and install opensshd for windows on your home pc - this will be the server. Follow the instructions here (till 'setup putty at home /work').
• See that your firewall so that it allows traffic on the port you configured opensshd to listen and serve to.
• Download and execute winscp on your client for browsing your files. (Download the application if you don't have administrator privileges - this will run out of the box, no installation needed.)
• Examples
  • This guide discusses a way an employee or student can securely access the Internet while at work or school, and also get around some common firewall restrictions that prevent you from using most networked programs. My definition of “securely” means that there should be no mean by which your employer can know which websites you have visited or are currently visiting, and can not view or decipher the content of those sites (without actually standing over your shoulder.)
