If not is there any other option? I don't know whether they will, but here's [0] a very useful list of options for when you can't install a proper ssh client. Note that *whatever* you do from a public computer that isn't under your control is fundamentally insecure; the machine could be keylogging, and even if you're using ssh key based login, if someone else is controlling the machine, any data entering the machine can in principle be sniffed and captured. I admit that I would still access my machine from a public terminal if the consequences of a compromise weren't that high and / or if I had some modicum of trust in the operator.
