Open multiple connections at once

2007-12-18 10:28

Hi,

it would be nice if I could select multiple stored sessions at once by using Ctrl and or Shift (as selecting files in Windows Explorer). When I then press Login, WinSCP should open a window that holds all sessions (or perhaps optionally open a separate window for each one of it).

That way, I could easily open connections to all my servers when something needs to be done on all of them.

Cheers
Lars

OK, added to TODO list, with low priority, unless more people asks for that.

Can I connect to 2 servers at same time (UAT and PROD) and have one on left side and other on right side so I can compare/transfer files between them.

Is there a tool that can do this: that is recommended?

server<=>server OR server<=> local

or is there a plug in to add

@UnixUser: You can transfer files between servers (using temporary storage in your workstation). It may not be very obvious, but it works. Connect to both servers, then highlight the file you want to copy, and use "Duplicate" in the File menu, to send it to the other server.

@Superole: Yes, that's correct. As documented:
Can I transfer files between two remote servers with WinSCP?.

I see that this thread is quite old, but I need exactly what the original post asks for.
So if this feature is still on a low-pri todo list, please add me to the list of requesters.
:D

Is there a simpler way to open multiple sessions?
Thanks

Something like FastSCP would be nice (transfer between hosts and not store temporary data on my local system). Could be a security issue...

@martin: Open sessions in left or right tab (FTP, SSH, etc.)
And session as PuTTY (Ctrl+P).

@truefriend-cz: Sorry, I do not understand. In left or right panel? Or rather in left AND right panel? And what does Open in PuTTY have to do with this?

Hi. I also looking to be able open multiple sessions at once. Ideally by selecting multiple saved sites and hit login would open all of the sessions in separate tabs.

Thanks
