%-> Putty's pretty good.  In fact, I'm using it now, but it seems to drop
%-> connections randomly after periods of inactivity.  I used to
%-> think that it
%-> was my old company's firewall, but now I'm at a new company and the
%-> problem is still here.  So, I thought it might be my firewall.  I set my
%-> TCP masq timeout to 5 days, but no difference.

%-> I'm using ssh, btw, since that may make a difference.

Don't think the time-outs are caused by PuTTY. I'm running it here, and it
stays up for as long as the network connection stays up.

%-> All in all, putty's tiny and runs ssh.  I wish it would use a

%-> file for its settings, though.  It would be nice to have a portable ssh

Yeah, well... PuTTY seems to save its config stuff in the Registry instead.
I guess you could export the relevant keys and import them as needed?
