Remote Access/Single Command

If you know the final destination you can combine two sequential ssh commands into one single command by simple put them together in one line. The only required "trick" is the -t parameter. Without this the second hop "hangs" around without a connected tty-Terminal - no output/input is possible even though the connection is established.

Verbatim terminal copy-n-paste (just eliminated some text):

~$ ssh -t gtest2@login.stud ssh -t c034.cip.loc 
#######
#######  login.stud.informatik.uni-goettingen.de  
  ...
## Bitte auf einem der c0xx PC 'weiterhangeln' um zu arbeiten.

#######
gtest2@login.stud's password:

Exactly the same is possible with PuTTY - you just have to define a specific command in the configuration dialog.
