Re: [suse-security] newbie ssh question

the last version of putty for windows that I saw was a GUI app w/ no
fields to put in username/pw. and if you're running a unix command line,
I don't see why you wouldn't just use the ssh commands instead of using
putty. the linux port is basically the same as putty/win32, although you
can specify a key file from the command line (I think the switch is -i
....check the man page though.)

-d.
