Tabby

I manage two different types of remote computers every week: Windows hosts that I access through Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), and Linux hosts that I access through Secure Shell (SSH). Instead of putting every connection into one large application, I use two focused tools: Microsoft Sysinternals RDCMan for Windows RDP connections and Tabby for Linux SSH connections. This arrangement keeps the connection type visible. When I need a Windows desktop, I open RDCMan. When I need a Linux shell, I open Tabby. Both applications are lightweight enough to leave available during the day, and both let me organize a growing list of hosts into named groups. ...
