Is there an SSH connection manager?
Is there an application (or GnomePanel plugin) that allows one to store SSH connection information and open a terminal on click?
I know that Nautilus does that using Ubuntu's "Password and Encryption keys", but is there such a thing for a terminal?
Much simplier method than installing an app.
Create a directory on your desktop (for example, call it ssh).
In your favourite editor, create a file called [servername i want to ssh to].desktop
In that file
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=SERVER NAME
Comment=ssh to SERVER NAME
Exec=ssh user@SERVER NAME
Icon=
Path=
Terminal=true
StartupNotify=false
Now mark the file as executable. Done.
Hope that helps.
Gnome Connection Manager is definately worth a try. it offers some interesting features and is usable, though it's not quiet mature yet.
