I want to ssh into multiple machines and choose option 1 from the menu driven linux interface.

  • TBRMInsanity:

    If you know the address of the Linux machine, the username to get onto the system and the password for that user, then I would suggest using PuTTY ( http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ ). I find that PuTTY is a great tool to access all my Linux boxes and it comes pre-configured to access a Linux machine (just select SSH in the main configure menu).

    That question makes absolutely no sense.
    All linux distributions have ssh built -in, you can ssh from your command line or use a client like PuTTY.
    If you are wondering how to manage multiple ssh sessions, check out screen here http://www.rackaid.com/resources/linux-tutorials/general-tutorials/using-screen/ .
    If this does not answer your question please elaborate more as to what exactly you wish to accomplish.
