A nice update on PuTTy Connection Manager
If you are working as a developer or a Linux system administrator, then most likely you’ll use PuTTy to connect to one of your servers (on-site or off-site).
PuTTY Connection Manager allows you to have multiple PuTTy sessions all in one window (PuTTy sessions in tabs). It’s much better than the PuTTy itself because this program actually merges all the PuTTy windows into one.
There was a bug before where you couldn’t just double click your saved PuTTy session configurations to connect to it if you already set-up a username on the configuration. There is an alpha update (not meant to be used on the production system) that actually fixes this problem and also other bugs. I’ve already updated mine and confirmed that it’s working. Doesn’t seem to have a problem too, despide of it being Alpha and the disclaimer.
To get this fixed version of PuTTy Connection Manager, check out this forum post.

Thank you very much mike. I use putty everyday in my office. I will check this out.
Nihar´s last blog post..Download Windows 7 Beta Genuine Activation Patch
If you use PuTTy everyday in your office, then you MUST install and use this one, Nihar!
I have used Putty for a long time and it’s not for beginners, but you can do so much with it.
Nice new design Mike. I haven’t been here in a while, but bookmarked you and will return more often.
Good stuff!
Frank J´s last blog post..Is Microsoft Readying a Burial for Vista?
Hey Frank. lol It’s been a few months since the new design
Glad to see you here again though!
Great post. I would also recommend trying out Poderosa.
[http://en.poderosa.org/]
It also allows for multiple SSH sessions in one window, allows for some customizations and very stable.
There is an English and Japanese version.

Oh I’ve never heard of Poderosa before. It’s good to have a PuTTY alternative. I might want to check that program out. Thanks Kevin
This new version of putty is great. Are there new version of other putty tools like keygen and pageant?
Well, the comment above also suggested Poderosa so you might want to take a look into that, because I haven’t.
I’m using Pageant in the office too.
As for PuTTy and WinSCP “replacement” , try Bitvise Tunnelier. I found it using less resources when transferring large files through WinSCP
If only putty had a way to send a command every minute to bypass keepalive packets which are rejected by the brocade switch…
Sending a command to all open ssh connections does not seem to work for me, but that would be a great feature!
