• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

I'm hoping someone can offer up some suggestions on an SSH app that I can use in a terminal services environment. Unfortunately Putty writes continous changes to the HKLM - which is a no-go in terminal services for your average user. Thanks.
 
maybe Tera Term? it's no longer in development, but it works. and doesn't putty only write to the registry when you save connections? do you have to save connections? I don't know of any other free SSH clients because I've never had to look. I think SecureCRT will do what you want, but it's not free.
 
I use SecureCRT everyday, and would highly recommend it, but as noted above, it isn't free.
 
AbsoluteTelnet works good, it's not free but you can try it for 30 days and decide if it work for you. I think it's like $40 or something like that, not too bad.

Are you sure about this? According to their FAQ...

A.5.2 Where does PuTTY store its data?

On Windows, PuTTY stores most of its data (saved sessions, SSH host keys) in the Registry. The precise location is

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SimonTatham\PuTTY

and within that area, saved sessions are stored under Sessions while host keys are stored under SshHostKeys.

PuTTY also requires a random number seed file, to improve the unpredictability of randomly chosen data needed as part of the SSH cryptography. This is stored by default in a file called PUTTY.RND; this is stored by default in the ‘Application Data’ directory, or failing that, one of a number of fallback locations. If you want to change the location of the random number seed file, you can put your chosen pathname in the Registry, at

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SimonTatham\PuTTY\RandSeedFile
