What it Does

This is a Expectk script that allows you to save time connecting to different hosts using ssh. It saves your password, login ID, and other host info that you have to type over and over again to connect. Once you save your connection information you can connect to a host with 2 clicks. First you choose the name and then hit connect. It will save you a lot of time.
