Malcolm,
I had to install ssh as a protocol handler as described in here: http://schipka.com/archives/34
Did not work at the first attempt, but after playing around a bit with it, I got it to work. Using this as an example I have developed an own protocol handler to handle rdp:// (for windows machines).
Hope this helps!
Christian

You may add html code to the DESCR field, and your browser will make it "clickable".
I think you're wanting something like the following:
(hosts.cfg) 192.168.1.24 servername.co.com # DESCR:"Web Server:description <a href=ssh:192.168.1.24>ssh</a>"
The above entry inside hosts.cfg would add a link of ssh:192.168.1.24 to the "info" button associated with that host in Xymon.
I hope this is clear; good luck!
How do you make PuTTY start when you click this link?
