Re: Is there any way to pass username to Putty

After changing Putty config, in Putty, like so:
Connection --> Data --> Login details --> When username is not specified: "User system username"
it worked!

you can also hard-type-in your username under:
Connection --> Data --> Login details --> Auto-login username

I entered username in username box and Password in password box and saved it as a session. I am using SFTP. :)

WinSCP should pass username automatically as long as it is entered in the session. How do you enter the username in WinSCP?

Is there any way to pass username to Putty

Hi, I was able to pass password to Putty but not username.
Is there anyway to pass username and password both at the sametime?
Thanks
