putty interview questions
Top putty frequently asked interview questions
The Alt+Space command doesn't work on Putty (at least for me). So, if I've to minimize or maximize my PuTTY windows, I'll have to use the mouse which is very uncomfortable. Did anyone get around this problem?
Thanks for your time!

I have a scenario where I need to run a linux shell command frequently (with different filenames) from windows. I am using PuTTY and WinSCP to do that (requires login name and password). The file is copied to a predefined folder in the linux machine through WinSCP and then the command is run from PuTTY. Is there a way by which I can automate this through a program. Ideally I would like to right click the file from windows and issue the command which would copy the file to remote machine and run the predefined command (in PuTTy) with the filename as argument.

Where can I still download PuTTY Connection Manager?
I am a PuTTY user and finally decided I need to upgrade to a tabbed SSH environment. I found a lot of threads/sites talking about PuTTY Connection Manager, but all of them pointed to missing pages/files.

On Windows I use PuTTY to log in a remote server via SSH. Is is possible to change the default directory entry point I get to after I connect and login? (That would be a nice time safer)
e.g. from server/home/ to server/home/subdir/subdir
forgot to add that the remote webserver is linux based

I'm trying to connect to my Debian Google Compute Engine server through PuTTy (I've tried other alternatives too) but when I do I get the error "Disconnected: No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey)
The google server came without a username and password, only a url to automatically login to their own terminal.

I am trying to use PuTTY to communicate over my computer's serial line. I have configured the correct serial line, baud rate, number of data bits, stop bits, parity, and flow control, and established the connection. When I click OK to open the connection, I am shown a black screen and each of my key presses are sent without being shown on the screen (the window remains black). How do I configure PuTTY so that it only sends my commands or opcodes after I press enter?
I have used PuTTY while at college for Telnet / SSH and it always showed my commands and input them only after I pressed the enter key, so I am a bit confused.
Thanks for the help in advance!

Wanting to give byobu a looksee as a screen 'update' of sorts. I start it with
byobu
and instead of the status line sitting at the bottom of the screen, everytime it updates it pushes to an additional line underneath the previous one. before long, the screen (putty) is filled with status line echoes.
How do I stop this?

I've generated key pairs using PuttyGen and been logging in using Pageant, so that I have to enter my pass-phrase only once, when my system boots.
How do I emulate this in Linux ? I've heard of keychain but I hear that it uses a different key pair format - I don't want to change my windows keys , and it would be nice if could seamlessly connect in the same manner in both Windows and Linux.
Can anyone help ?
