A tiny query on ssh usage

I have a couple of remote machines
which I ssh to (in Fedora-11/KDE)
with buttons created with Menu Editor.
The command for one is "/usr/bin/ssh -Y alfred-vpn"
and I have it set to "Run in Terminal".

This works fine; I go to desktop 3,
and click on the button.

There is one tiny inconvenience;
when I logout and login again
(or sleep and resume)
there is a window in desktop 3 with a local shell.
I have to close this, and press the button again.

What I would really like would be
for this remote link to come up automatically in desktop 3
(as soon as the connection is established),
and for the local window to close on logout.

Is that possible?
