When you install a Linux distribution on your own, you know which distribution and version it is. But if you use SSH to log in to a remote Linux server provided by an enterprise or client, you may wonder which Linux distribution and version it is. The simplest way to check Linux version is to see the content of the /etc/os-release file. Escape character is '^'. SSH-2.0-OpenSSH7.9 In ssh debug output, you'd look for these lines: debug1: Local version string SSH-2.0-OpenSSH7.9 debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version OpenSSH7.9 The first line is the version of your local client. The second line is the remote server's ssh protocol and software version.
