Re: single session or multiple session

I remember twisty Shift+Ctrl+x 6 thing was mentioned in the early CCNA type
books way back somewhere between Semaphore and Morse Code development :)

I have to say I never got on with it even back then. I tended to just log
onto one device do my thing and log off. Sometimes I might hop from there to
another device. To go back I would just exit.

An agricultural approach but it works..

But once I started messing around with lab scenarios and so many devices
across the piece I found it so much easier to just work with saved sessions
for each device.

Mind you I only switched from hyperteminal to SecureCRT a few weeks ago on
Scott's advice.

I suppose some old bad habits die a little hard ;)
