Hi,
I have to telnet/rlogin to different machines to get my work done.Is
there any tabbed terminal emulator available for free.Using putty, I
have to open a new window for each connection and it gets lil confusing
after some time.
I am on a windows workstation, and any good clients you know  ( X
emulators would also work if free  ) of should really help.I am using
cygwin,but its not so lightweight.I am looking for something like the
konsole app in Linux.

Thanks,
Rohitash

Read up on the screen program.
Quickstart:
run screen , hit ctrl-a c to create another shell/window.
navigate between the screens with e.g ctrl+a 1 ,ctrl+a 2 and so on.
disconnect with ctrl+a d , reconnect the session with screen -d -r

Very nice solution,. did not know about that one.
Been doing it with fvwm and 9 xterms in the pager (9 virtual screens).

If you have more than ten windows in screen you can switch
with sequences like ctrl+' 10 enter
Other good combinations to remember are
ctrl+a space (Next window)
ctrl+a ctrl+a (Switch between two most recent windows)
ctrl+a ? (Information about key bindings)

I use konsole, which has tabbed terms--despite the fact that in at
least one case, I'm running GNOME. I have noticed some light,
occaisional graphics glitches in my copy of it, though.

kterm also allows you to "detach" a tab, which is useful when I need
to see two terms at the same time.

My "solution" is  to open a Cygwin Xserver.   Then, open xterms inside
that Xserver window and do ssh  from those xterms.  (Or use "ssh -X -f
remote_host  xterm".)   Still many  xterms.   But  they all  "grouped"
together into one X-server window.

You can easily  run a second X-server (or the  same X-server, but with
multiple screens (see the -screen  option)) to create another group of
xterms.  That  makes things more  manageable under Windows  stupid GUI
which lacks virtual terminals.

No  X emulators.  They  are real  X servers.   Cygwin includes  a free
X-server.

Windows itself is much more heavy-weight than Cygwin.

I use cygwin on Windows with a gnome-terminal running on Linux. Works
well for me. For example,

ssh -X mymachine gnome-teriminal

The gnome terminal can spawn new terminals from the menu, either in tabs
or new windows.
