I am using PuTTY for logging in to Solaris/Linux servers.
Under Sessions ? Logging, we see 'Session Logging' settings. I am not able to save the settings for permanent use.
Isn't such feature available or am I wrong somewhere?
PS: I want to save the log file path, 'All session output' as a 'forever setting'.

The answer is
I always have to check my cheatsheet :-)
Step 1: right-click on the top of putty window and select 'Change settings'.
Step 2: type the name of the session and save.
That's it!. Enjoy!
This is a bit confusing, but follow these steps to save the session.
- Category -> Session -> enter public IP in Host and 22 in port.
- Connection -> SSH -> Auth -> select the .ppk file
- Category -> Session -> enter a name in Saved Session -> Click Save
To open the session, double click on particular saved session.
To set permanent PuTTY session parameters do:
Create sessions in PuTTY. Name it as "MyskinPROD"
Configure the path for this session to point to "C:\dir\&Y&M&D&T_&H_putty.log".
Create a Windows "Shortcut" to C:...\Putty.exe.
Open "Shortcut" Properties and append "Target" line with parameters as shown below:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\UTL\putty.exe" -ssh -load MyskinPROD user@ServerIP -pw password
Now, your PuTTY shortcut will bring in the "MyskinPROD" configuration every time you open the shortcut.
