Special terminal for new shell

Asked by Eli Schwartz

I am new at computer programming, Ubuntu, and Terminal.
For my computer class, we are using a beaglebone, which we log onto in a different shell, and we were told to use ssh 192.168.0.39. This gets us automatically to our user on it, and prompts for our password. I want to know if there's any way to set another terminal profile to automatically go to the beaglebone when I open the terminal.
I have absolutely no idea what to do (I'm a newbie).

you could make a shortcut to run:

gnome-terminal -x sh -c "ssh user@server"

And it will run the connect command in a fresh terminal.

It didn't do anything, just opened up a new terminal which was blank and closed in a second. Other than that, nothing.

Run it in a terminal and it will spawn another terminal and do as you need.

It turns out the lace I wanted to connect to was disconnected by our teacher. Now that it's reinstalled, I got on easily. I made a new application with the command:
gnome-terminal -x sh -c "ssh user@server"
and it works perfectly. Thank you very much
