G'day,

I'm noew to linux and am looking for an application that is equal to
SecureCRT. I am specificaly looking for an application that has a menu
system of telnet/ssh hosts with folders (by customer).

If such a thing exists please let me know :)

Not sure what you mean by "with folders (by customer)". When I am stuck
in Windows I use 'Putty' for ssh (free). You save whatever configuration
you want for different hosts, then just click on one from a list, load and
connect. I used its puttygen to generate a key and uploaded that (binary)
and appended that to my authorized_keys (which works for Linux, Solaris,
NetBSD hosts).

Why have an 'application' that is limited to starting telnet and ssh
sessions?
Use the system's ability to tie an icon to a command line to make icons
named for the remote hosts with the command line you need to execute
to reach it. For example you might use
xterm -fg blue -bg wheat -e "ssh remotehost"
for one of them. If they make too much clutter on the desktop, drag
them to a folder to organize them.

You can also try PuTTY for linux. There is a precompiled package for
Debian from the official site and mirrors (apt-get install putty ....).
I suppose there is also precompiled packages for other distributions.
You can also compile it from source. Search for "putty" in Google and
the first links sends you to the home page of the project.
