Cannot configure SSH port to use value from PuTTY profile #854

When you configure a session to use a "PuTTY Session Profile", you can leave out the field "Host Name (or IP Address)". SuperPuTTY will then fetch the value from PuTTY and connect to that IP.

Unfortunately, you cannot leave "TCP Port" blank as SuperPuTTY will mark this as "Invalid Port".

This lead to me unknowingly connecting to the live server on port 22, when I wanted to connect to the dev server on port 8022 (which was only configured in PuTTY), as I didn't notice the port setting in SuperPuTTY.

this sounds like a code fix: When a putty profile is being used, disable requirement for port field to have a valid value.

If Blank, use port specified in profile, if not blank, use value provided for port.

Sounds good
