| + | ====== Importing Stored Sessions from PuTTY ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | WinSCP allows you to import stored sessions from [[&url(putty)|PuTTY SSH client]]. | ||
| + | |||
| + | &screenshotpict(import) | ||
| + | |||
| + | To open //Import session from PuTTY// dialog use //Tools// button on //[[ui_login_stored_sessions|Stored sessions tab]]// of Login dialog. | ||
| + | |||
| + | You will receive list of all sessions created in PuTTY. In the seconds column of the list you will see a protocol that is associated with the session. Next to the session name there is a checkbox. Use it to select sessions you would like to import. By default WinSCP will select only SSH sessions for which there is no WinSCP session with the same name. You can alter the selection as you like. You can even select session with other protocols (like Telnet) if you know that the server supports SSH as well. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The checkbox //Import cached host keys for checked sessions// makes WinSCP import SSH host keys from PuTTY cache for hostnames from all selected sessions. So you do not need to confirm again the SSH host keys that you have confirmed in PuTTY already. | ||
| + | |||
| + | When you finish your selection, press //OK// to import the sessions. Note that when the name of imported session collides with name of an existing session, WinSCP appends number to end of the name to name it unique. For session options that PuTTY does not have, WinSCP will use the [[session_configuration#default|defaults]]. | ||
