Hi Techies,
When I double click a saved putty session it comes into the "Saved Sessions" field but does NOT jump into the "Host Name (or IP address)" field.
What gives...anyone seen that behavior of PuTTy and know a solution for it?

Once you save a putty session you need to run it with the command:
putty -load saved_session_name (saved_session_name is the name u saved it with)
You can write a batch file to double click if you'd like 
It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man!

Putty version .60 , I think latest and windows vista 32 and 64 bit both exhibit that same behavior.
Tofi I am doing this in gui of PuTTy and I know thats not the normal behavior putty. Used to be able to make it jump up.

or if there's a desktop shortcut,then change the command to be invoked through the shortcut properties.

Have you saved the password? It probably because it still needs pw authentication.

another putty related question... if im accessing root account, it asks for the password again. is this the server requesting confirmation or putty confirming?

Once you are connected to an SSH session you do need to put in a username and password.

The GUI part of putty doesn't really give you the option of a one-click connection. You still have to load the saved session and then connect. With the CLI command all you need to do is click on the batch file, or as Lucid said modify the shortcut to insert the "-load" parameter into the shortcut.

Well maybe I didnt make the actual problem very clear. ...but i am trying to resolve the gui problem.
I know for a fact saved sessions are supposed to be double clicked and then you can click connect - because that makes the saved session jump up into "Host Name (or IP address)" field - and then you click connect.
But alas it doesnt jump into that field.
Vista issue maybe?
