SSH SCP Hyperlink
Following on from a previous post about creating and using an RDP Hyperlink on a computer running Windows, I have written another two .bat files for use with SSH and SCP protocols.
SSH Hyperlink
The first .bat file allows for easy installation/uninstallation of the SSH hyperlink association. It is used for a hyperlink with an associated prefix of ssh://. The bat file will invoke a 3rd party SSH client and establish a connection to the host.
To create and use a hyperlink that is prefixed by ssh:// you will first need to download the latest copy of putty.exe - HERE
Save or move putty.exe (rename to this if different) to C:\WINDOWS\System32\
Download ssh.bat - HERE
Extract and run ssh.bat to create the scp:// hyperlink association on your computer.
SCP Hyperlink
The second .bat file allows for easy installation/uninstallation of the SCP hyperlink association. It is used for a hyperlink with an associated prefix of scp://. The bat file will invoke a 3rd party SCP client and establish a connection to the host.
To create and use a hyperlink that is prefixed by scp:// you will first need to download the latest copy of WinSCP.exe - HERE (use the link for 'Portable executables')
Save or move WinSCP.exe (rename to this if different) to C:\WINDOWS\System32\
Download scp.bat - HERE
Extract and run scp.bat to create the scp:// hyperlink association on your computer.
Notes
After completing the above, any hyperlinks prefixed with ssh:// and/or scp:// will automatically be opened and a connection attempt made.
A hyperlink of:
ssh://someserver
would run putty.exe and attempt to connect to 'someserver'.
