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.

Check the screenshots and details on how I did it in my environment:

It works fine for me  but it s a little tricky        First open the PuTTY configuration  Select the session  right part of the window  Saved Sessions  Click Load  now you have loaded Host Name  Port and Connection type    Then click Logging  under Session on the left  Change whatever settings you want   Go back to Session window and click the Save button     Now you have settings for this session set  every time you load session it will be logged

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
