Package: putty Version: 0.60-4 Severity: normal I use the windows version of PuTTY very very frequently. One of the features I use often is to run it from the Windows "Run" dialog..
Ie. Win+R putty u...@host port Win+R putty m...@example.com 22000 I've noticed that this linux version supports the specification of host and port in the same fashion, but seems to include the username@ portion as part of the hostname, failing with something similar to "Unable to open connection to u...@host: Name or service not known". I see there's an "-l" switch, but I'm curious why this alternate behaviour described above varies from the windows version. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (700, 'unstable'), (600, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26.3 (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages putty depends on: ii libc6 2.7-16 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libglib1.2ldbl 1.2.10-19 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk1.2 1.2.10-18.1 The GIMP Toolkit set of widgets fo ii libx11-6 2:1.1.5-2 X11 client-side library ii libxext6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxi6 2:1.1.4-1 X11 Input extension library ii putty-tools 0.60-4 command-line tools for SSH, SCP, a putty recommends no packages. putty suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
