How to open a pem file in Putty

downoload puttygen.exe   open it and browse for the ‘pem’ file, click ‘ok’  . give passphase if needed. click ‘save private key’ give a passphrase for eg:- 123    so that even if anyone start putty with that .ppk file created, they will not be able to enter unless they know the passprase. Or u can leave the passphrase null so that during connection it will ask only the username. Now open Putty.exe  then go the option Connection -> SSH-> Auth -> browse -> select the .ppt file and click open.

External drives connected to Windows 2003 server doesn't show in my computer.

 The issue is because the server is not enabled the automount option.  Inorder to resolvethe issue, open command promt and type the following:-   C:\>diskpart diskpart>automount -tell us if automount is enabled diskpart>automount enable -enable automatic drive letter assignment diskpart>automount scrub -remove old automatic drive letter assignments diskpart>exit C:\>exit   Now connect the new external USB/HDD to the server and it will be showing  in the 'My computer'. Have a nice day.
