Hi Ken,
It is really a security feature... you could use tools like SecureCRT
which allows you to save profiles with username and password. You then
just double click on a system which logs you straight in. I don't know
what ssh client and os you are using but there might be clients in linux
too that allows this functionality. Putty client does not do this as
they deem it a security risk.

Regards
