Mremoteng: Add support to execute command after login through ssh
If possible support for sending custom keystrokes(commands) after login through ssh would be great. This could be useful to add temporary shell aliases/functions or for example to change to one's preferred shell after login.
More like "External Tools Before" but the keystrokes should be sent to the terminal instead of an external program.

I was looking for this option too.
For information actually you can do it with a Putty session :
- Go to "Tools>Options>Advanced>Launch PuTTY"
- And then go to "Connection>SSH"
- In "Remote command" write your command (for example I use "screen -r sessionname")
- Go back to "Session", write a name in "Saved Sessions" and click on save
- Now you can use this PuTTY session in your configuration and it will execute the remote command after login.
I hope this will help someone.

@thomasjammet this is helpful, but that requires creating a session profile for each connection in Putty. Managing that option from within mRemoteNG connection config will be better.

This is the most wanted feature for mRemoteNG. Can we have two new fields in config after user name and password, one for login path, one for login command? That will allow quick config and very useful.

This can be done already -- similar to the previous comment, but with some adjustments * if you want to cover all standard sessions within mRemoteNG:
Go to "Tools>Options>Advanced>Launch PuTTY"
* Select 'default' session and hit Load
And then go to "Connection>SSH"
In "Remote command" write your command (for example I use "screen -r sessionname")
Go back to "Session", select 'default' session under "Saved Sessions" again and click on save
** From now on when you launch a PuTTY session to any host without a specific config defined, the remote command will be executed after login.

I don't think that one command for all PuTTY default sessions is sufficient. I am used to PAC Manager on Linux (https://sourceforge.net/projects/pacmanager/). There you can configure SSH commandlines AND Tcl EXPECT separately for every connection. With EXPECT you can read the console output and perform actions based on that output. I am badly missing these features with Windows and mRemote! If possible have a look and try to implement these. This is a must have for example to connect to a jump host and from there connect to other systems.

+1 We have multiple environments on one server. In mRemoteNG I have a connection for each environment. Options discussed by @lwuthunder would be ideal. On connection the paths and environment variables needed for the environment would be already set up.

Would be great, if it could be
- an (inheritable) text-input-field to enter,
- any number of lines.
The "5 Commands"-Limit is somehow unhandy when using Putty-CM.

this would be helpful in case we have multiple jumpbox to reach destination. If we can send text to window it would be helpful.
e.g custom commands, complex passwords.

+1 Would really like to see a Login Macro of Password Macro. We always login with a unprivileged and then su - to root with a password. Remote Desktop Manager has this "Macro password" option.

I'm giving up on this. My company is going to switch to MobaXterm anyways. "MobaXterm supports code snippets that get recorded as a macro and can get replayed on other servers later. Besides that you have multiexecution of typed commands, that is the commands get executed on different servers at the same time."
For private use I stick with PAC Manager on Linux which uses expect for macros.
So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish.
