[lug] Windoze-based linux emergency disk

[Hugh Brown]

Putty puts ssh keys into the registry, I believe.  I seem to remember some
discussion on the putty page that speaks to your question.

I'm trying to put together a solution for those times when I'm not around a machine armed with these. In situations where I can't just install apps on someone elses computer.

If I execute PuTTY will it leave a foot print on the machine? I'll be borrowing a mcahine to burn the CD so I kinda need to cover all the bases before hand.
