    Thanks, I'll try the the attached version and let you know, and thanks for the bash command, I'll see if I can incorporate that into my tools somehow. As for the icons, I understand the limited use-case, but it seems like a waste of space on the tabs to show putty icon after putty icon. Perhaps others would benefit from a simple selection of default icons (like a server, a switch, a database, etc) to distinguish them. If such a setting were retained in the session state of the registry, users like...

    So far, I only have positive feedback about your implementation ... but as I've continued to use it, there are a couple things I keep running into. First is a result of habit ... is it possible to add or activate a right-click menu to the tabs? I've been using your version for a few weeks now, but I continue to try and right-click the tabs when I want to duplicate, restart or change a sessions settings. I know that those options are available on your ribbon, but my natural reflex (at least after...

    That was a good catch ... after looking into it, the script that runs to check the hostname and settings (and occasionally updates them if required) was periodically changing the value to use a lowercase "n". Although the script always specified it lowercase when it made a change, the key name didn't always recase during the write. This still has me perplexed by its randomness. The lowercase anomally didn't impact the latest versions of classic putty, so I suppose its not case-sensitive with regard...

    This is just a wild thought, based very much on an observation, so feel free to disregard if its not applicable. I was looking at the at the registry file I exported above, and it struck me that the keys weren't exported in alphebetical order (like they are displayed in regedit). In the export, portforardings is first (which loads), and hostname is the very last key on the list. I know its a stretch, but is there a "for-each" style loop that putty-nd is using to load the parameters which could be...

    Here you go ... I also added the regkey and screen shots to show that host name is blank, but other parameters are loaded.

    The sessions are opened via a script that executes the command, but not as a batch. The script will lanch a single session whenever it is executed, not a mass of sessions. The scripts main job is simply to verify that the information saved in the sessions doesnt need to be updated ... for example, it looks up the hostname/ip and any required ssh tunnels that need to be defined from a repository (which is maintained with on-going changes), and validates that the settings stored in the registry for...

    I'm not sure if this is a bug or what .. but it feels like a bug. Unfortunatley, I can't consistantly reproduce it so I'll share what I can, and maybe that'll point to something useful. For starters, I'm using the last version you provided with the ssh banners enabled, not the official release at this moment, but I seem to recall encountering this with that version as well and simply disregarding it ... thinking I may have messed something up at the time. In my environment, I launch putty (in this...

    Are you saying that the -v switch would have shown the banner on the previous version?, or that it would have just echo'd the username?

  • Randy Randy posted a comment on discussion Open Discussion

    At first glance, this did it ... the banners are working to targets where they weren't yesterday. It even restored the lack of login user name "echo" when passing the username via a command line launch. Thanks!

    HI, I've recenlty come upon putty-nd, and started using it .. so far I like it. I've noticed, however, that when I connect to certain systems that I know have banner's defined in ssh, they are not being presented to the me .. just the password prompt. This doesn't seem to stop anything from working, but in our environment the banners tend to provide pretty important info when logging in .. so I'd like to see them. :) (In my case, I'm specifically connecting to ubuntu 16 servers) The "Display pre-authentication...
