Sending Host name, Login Id & password dynamically to Putty using C#

Question

I am creating a utility in Windows with C# as a programming langugage.

Reqirement is

1. to create a connection with Unix Server -- i am trying to connect to Putty.exe
2. delete old files from specific location
3. copy new files to specific location.

Now, my question is how to pass "host name" + loginID & password to the putty dynamically.

     Process.Start(@"C:\Putty\putty.exe");

This is opening putty with configuration wizard, can i pass all the values in the command directly

Answer 1

Look into Putty's command line arguments here to pass that to Putty :

string hostname = "hostname";
string login = "login";
string password = "password";


ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
startInfo.FileName = @"C:\Putty\putty.exe";
startInfo.Arguments = string.Format("{0}@{1} -pw {2}",login,hostname, password);
Process process = new Process();
process.StartInfo = startInfo;
process.Start();

Something like that should work...
