Opt out of selection menu?

When I logon to my server with PuTTY I am forced into a selection menu with few options. How to I opt out of this menu to get to the home directory to view all of the files on the server?

Thanks for the help. Smilie

Try the option that says "Command line" or similar. If there's no option to get into the shell, there's probably a very good reason.
