SecPanel serves as a graphical user interface for managing and running SSH (Secure Shell) and SCP (Secure Copy) connections.

SecPanel is not a new implementation of the SecureShell protocol or the ssh software-suite.

SecPanel sits on top of SSH software-suites and supports the all ssh variants. You may get information about these programs at http://www.ssh.com respectively at http://www.openssh.com.

SecPanel is written entirely in pure Tcl/Tk and does not need any extensions but it requires version 8.x of Tcl and Tk.

SecPanel is free software and is released under the conditions of the GNU General Public License. See the file COPYING and notes in the source code for details.
