You can save that setting for each entry in Putty. Just put in the hostname, choose port 22 then go down on you left and choose SSH and set it to ver. 2. Now go back and save that host entry. It should use ver. 2 each time you log on.
Joe, I'm about to deploy about 30 SuSE workstations across the country as a demo for a project. If everything works out, this could turn into 200 SuSE workstations. Since they are workstations, they use DHCP and don't have static IPs. Also, it would be more work to set PuTTY up with each workstation saved as a host. I really need a server-side solution.
You can still do it on the PuTTY side. Define a session, selecting protocol = SSH, Preferred SSH protocol = 2 only, and anything else you want to be default, give the session a name (say, "ssh2suse") and save it. Then when Putty starts, double-click on ssh2suse to bring up the session, and enter the host name or IP address you want to connect to and click "Open" Jim Cunning
