“I work with secure shell all the time. Day in and day out I am
administering personal machines and client machines with the help
of ssh. After a while opening up a terminal window and entering the
command to connect to all of these clients gets old. And we all
know saving time and effort equates to saving money. So any tool
that can help make your daily administrative life easier is a good
thing.

“One tool to help you manage your secure shell connections is
the GNOME SSHmenu tool. This helpful application adds a small
applet to the GNOME panel that allows you to make secure shell
connections with a single click. And not only does this applet make
it easy to connect, it also stores multiple connections, so all of
your ssh connections are just a click away. In this tutorial I am
going to show you how to install GNOME SSHmenu and set up your
secure shell connections so you can take advantage of this handy
tool.”
