| - | FIXME | ||
| - | ===== Adding and configuring a new session ===== | + | Once you have [[#launching_putty_pageant|started pageant]], and [[#using_putty_pageant|configured sessions]], you can easily open terminals on the remote servers by right-clicking on the pageant icon, and selecting a **Saved Session**. \\ {{ :other:putty_12.png?direct |}} |

| + | * Right-click on the shortcut and select **Properties**, then add the name of the desired profile to the existing target\\ e.g. ''"C:\Program Files\PuTTY\putty.exe" -load "obelix via ssh1"'' | ||
