Hi.

Can you help with building a script for changing the connection type for each saved connection (session) to putty? Right now the connections are Remote Desktop connections which won't work for port 22 (ssh). I like my customized Putty.

Or help with building a template for Putty? I can just convert the entries to Putty.

If I open export the entries to a CSV file now, I only see Display name, description, IP address and port number.

This post is the solution I was looking for.

Hi drift hunters

I'm trying to figure out how to create new template to use Putty. I like the customizations I have created for my putty session.

You can usually create a template by configuring one PuTTY session exactly the way you want, then saving it as a base/template entry. After that, duplicate the entry whenever you need a new connection so all your custom settings carry over automatically. It saves a lot of time compared to configuring each session from scratch.

Thanks.. This helped to resolve my problem.

Edit => Edit (Special Actions)... => Template => Change Type

How can I create a Putty Template? Do you have a sample?

@rolflobker Thanks

I just exported the file again as rdm this time, and imported it into Remote Desktop Manager.

This is the error message that I see when I click on a host, and the connection expires. Where does one update the protocol? I have confirmed that the port number is correct.

What is preventing you from creating a new session?

@rolflobker

I have about 620 sessions that were imported as a CSV file... So it wont be an easy task to create new sessions for each.

How do I change the connection type to Windows Terminal? Right now, if I double-click on a session, it says connecting, and then expires.

It shows connection type for each of the hosts as Microsoft Remote Desktop. How to change it to use Putty?

I have Remote Desktop Manager 2026.1.22.0. 64-bit installed.

I have imported several hosts with IPs using port 22 (in a csv file) - from another PC with Remote Desktop Manager.

How do I enable Putty to be the fault connection client on this new computer? (Putty is installed on this computer as well.) Right now, when I double click a host, I get a window saying Connecting ....., and then nothing happens. I do not see the putty window

Hi..

You have answered the query in my other thread "Do not lost previous connection history, when reconnecting the session"

Please close this thread.

Makes sense... Thanks ... Please close this thread.

version 2024.3.22.0 64-bit

Where do I find the terminal entry? When I open a node, it opens a Putty window.

Using RDM 2024.3.22.0 and putty.

Currently, when a SSH connection is lost, the screen is being cleared. Would it be possible to let it as it is, in order to not lose the terminal text that was displayed.

Moreover, it would be nice if the terminal wouldn't be cleared as well when doing a reconnect.

Hi..

Please let me know if this has been resolved? If so, what setting should I change?

For me, when I reconnect, I lose the previous session. I would like to retain the previous session history in the window...

Thanks.

Nevermind... Found it... It is in Settings > Application > Paths > Configure Installation Path.

Hi

How do I change the location for Putty within RDM? I had to delete Putty and reinstall Putty to a different location. Now when I double click on a host, I get the error:

"Unable to find the Putty application. Make sure its installed and check the configured path in the application process."

How do I point Putty location to the new location?

Thanks.
