Enable SSH Putty on Orion Node page
1. Setup the standard release of Putty
2. if you have a proxyhost configure your putty/pageant/puttygen for login using authorized_keys
3. create a new profile, e.g. 'telnet' with you proxyhost settings in it using this as the starting point: ssh ProxyCommand and PuTTY | Monkeys with Buttons
(if you can ssh from your desktop, then don't bother with the proxy configuration in this profile. A profile is useful for configuring things like keeping a logfile and other session properties)
4. use ftype to redirect the telnet URL:
ftype telnet="C:\Program Files (x86)\PuTTY\putty.exe" -load "telnet" -ssh %1
the -ssh forces the use of ssh even if the URL is telnet://
