Thanks for your feedback.

Hi,

I confirm the latest build you sent me is working properly. I look forward to seeing this improvement appear in an upcoming release.

Thank you very much,

GR

I'm sending you new build.

Hi,

I have tried the build you submitted to me and right-clicking a folder with three sites do effectively open three PuTTY sessions, but only one works. According to my testing, it's always the last one that is correctly opened.

What is happening is that the build, for the other sites, uses the last site's hostname/IP address... and as all those sites have distinct sets of credentials, the two sites not opened properly will display a login error.

Note that logging to each of the environments by selecting the site and opening it in PuTTY works properly.

Have a nice day,

GR.

I have added this request to the tracker:
Issue 2079 – Allow opening all sites in a folder in PuTTY

I'm sending you an email with a development version of WinSCP to the address you have used to register on this forum.

That's as designed. The "Open in PuTTY" behaves the same as "Login". If you want to keep the Login window open, hold down Shift key while selecting the "Open in PuTTY" command (again, same as with "Login"). See the footnote at:

• Improvement: It is possible to open multiple connections at the same time by right-clicking a folder and clicking "Login". It would be great to have an "Open in PuTTY" entry that would open a PuTTY window for all folder's contents the same way it does for the standard WinSCP login. It would be a time-saver whenever I need to open multiple sites in their respective PuTTY window for maintenance purposes. At this time, I need to use the multiple login, select the tabs one by one and click the "Open in PuTTY" button, or open the login window multiple times and use the "Open in PuTTY" menu item (which closes the login window, making the task take more time than it should).

OK, I'll consider that.
