It is fairly easy to install PuTTY on Mac, just follow the steps below. The following steps have been tested on macOS Sequoia v15. However, in case you are using another macOS version, it is still relevant.
1. First of all Install Xcode. You can download it from here: https://developer.apple.com/xcode/download/
2. After installing Xcode, you must Install Command Line Tools. In order to install Command Line Tools you must Launch the terminal, found in /Applications/Utilities, and type this command:
xcode-select –install
3. Download and install MacPorts from here: https://www.macports.org/install.php
4. After installing the MacPorts, open the terminal and type this command: sudo port -v selfupdate
*if everything is in order, then you have to wait to see the update. something similar to the below picture:
5. After the selfupdate, close your terminal, open it again and type this command:
sudo port install putty
It will take some time based on your internet connection to install PuTTY on your Mac.
6. After finishing the installation, close your Terminal, open your terminal again and Type Putty into the terminal.
If there is any error, you must install XQuartz since PuTTY needs a graphical interface to run. You can find and install XQuartz from this address: https://www.xquartz.org/
No after finishing with the XQuartz installation, open your terminal again and type putty and you are ready to go!
No after finishing with the XQuartz installation, open your terminal again and type putty and you are ready to go!
cheers!
