NOt sure if this is the right section...

I was wondering if it is possible to save our IP and the telnet option in Putty so every time you open it you don't have to type it in? Also can it automatically sign you in to your server without having to type root etc?

There should be a 'Save' button on the main 'Session' page of Putty to save the current session.  You give it a name under 'Saved Sessions'.  Then when you want to run that session you just click on it and click 'Open'.  Not sure if there is a way to pre-fill the login info.

sweet that works thank you. Saving at least your username would be nice as well but for now this way less annoying!

If I set my username to root and have a password if I use putty once getting to the password part it does not let me type anything?

I have mine set with userid saved.  do not have password saved.

 

For the Connection--> Data  Auto-login username  put in root

For Session  put in your host or IP, port, connection type, etc

In Saved Sessions put in the name you want it to be....then click the Save button

 

Then when you use it, will take you to the prompt for password...type it in (it is hidden so you won't see anything when you type) then hit enter
