Thanks for reaching out, Cern.
I'm afraid, I cannot figure out this line of your reply:

1. How can I install openssh-server package, please? I found here 
<https://packages.debian.org/jessie/openssh-server>apparently related. 
Should I download anything from here?!! What is that? And do you mind 
telling me using what command I can download from a link online? 
2. Is the PuTTY I've got on my Windows actually my "*console terminal"*? 

Sorry if my questions sound a bit LMGTFY. Your replies will sure save me 
hours of net surfing.
