Changing Hosts

If you want to change hosts without quitting the program, do the following:

  1. Disconnect from the host you are connected to, either by choosing Disconnect from the File menu, clicking the Disconnect icon on the toolbar or by logging out of the server using the associated UNIX command (exit, logout, or quit).
  2. Press enter to open the Connection dialog box, or choose Connect from the File menu.
  3. Type the name or IP address of the host you want to connect to, and enter your user name on the remote host. The authentication method should be set to Password, unless you have already created and transferred a public key to the host.
  4. Click OK.
