Hi can anyone help me ??
I have to open many puttys of a server at a time.
I just want to have batch file so that in just a click all the puttys will open without asking
for login and password (any way to provide the login and pwd in cmd)
I am watching all putty running at a time
Secondly I want to run 20 different tail commands in puttys
I want a prog that open these puttys and run tail command by itself(I would not like to open putty again and again)
For the no password I use puttygen.exe to create my ssh keys. I then specify it under connections, SSH, Auth and point private key for authentication to the private key you generated with puttygen.exe. (save as your default settings.) Copy the public key to your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file.
on the shortcut I use to lauch putty I specify the path to putty.exe and then user@servername
ie
c:\downloads\putty.exe bob@server1
as for passing the tail -f /whatever/log/file you could easily create a alias to do that (I'm not sure how to pass that via the putty shortcut).
