Your saved settings should all appear in the configuration panel. To reload a saved session: single-click to select the session name in the list box, and then press the ‘Load’ button. Settings changed since the start of the session will be saved with their current values as well as settings changed through the dialog, this includes changes in window size, window title changes sent by the server, and so on. You can also save settings in mid-session, from the ‘Change Settings’ dialog. Your saved session name should now appear in the list box. (The server name is often a good choice for a saved session name.) Then press the ‘Save’ button. Enter a name for the saved session in the ‘Saved Sessions’ input box. To save a session: first go through the rest of the configuration box setting up all the options you want. If there is a specific host you want to store the details of how to connect to, you should create a saved session, which will be separate from the Default Settings. Select the ‘ Default Settings’ entry in the saved sessions list, with a single click. To save your default settings: first set up the settings the way you want them saved. A saved session contains all the information PuTTY needs to start exactly the session you want. It also allows you to create saved sessions, which contain a full set of configuration options plus a host name and protocol. The next part of the Session configuration panel allows you to save your preferred PuTTY options so they will appear automatically the next time you start PuTTY. There is some danger that cu is willing to absorb certain signals without quitting, or that it will crash uncleanly (perhaps leaving the serial port in a messed-up state, or leaving log files not updated).Previous page next page 4.1.2 Loading and storing saved sessions If all else fails, google for hints, or read the source to cu.

You may have to experiment with what signal to send (common candidates are QUIT, KILL, TERM, USR1). Open a second window to the same host, and use the kill command in the second window. But to be honest, I don't remember which signal that is, and the documentation is silent on it. Option 3: I think there is a signal that you can send to cu to make it quit. Again, there aren't terribly many possible choices. That's easier, use option -e on the ssh command line. Option 2: Change the escape character that ssh uses. It may take some effort to find another rarely-used character, like backslash or vertical bar or backquote. It's the variable "escape" in the cu configuration file. Option 1: Change the escape character that cu uses.

Your problem is that both cu and ssh use the same escape character, namely tilde or "~".

Re: Closing cu from within an ssh session?

What is the proper way to shutdown and exit out of a cu session?Īnd what is the proper way to do it from within an ssh session? I need to close down cu properly, within the original ssh session I opened it from. And if someone else tries to access the port it's busy. If I use " ~!" it drops me back into my ssh session, but the lock is still in place. Hitting the esc key a bunch of times followed by a quick " shift+~" will do it.īut, if I do it while ssh'd to host_b it closes the ssh session. Sometimes it registers a literal " ~" character, other times it registers as an escape signal. The normal way to close down cu to cuau0 is keystroke " ~." or " ~^d", the " ~" is an escape signal, followed by a command. I need to be able to shut down and exit out of the cu session on cuau0, during the ssh session I opened it from. Host_b has a serial line to a network device on /dev/cuau0įrom host_a, through my ssh session, I can use cu-> cuau0 -> network device.Įverything works as expected/intended up to this point.īut then, if I want to close down the serial connection without closing my ssh session.
