As someone else would have mentioned by now, Putty has a keepalive timer within it's settings. By default sshd server will timeout connections, so it's upto the client to keep the connection alive. You'll find the setting in Putty's "Connection" setting tab. Michael. http://personals.yahoo.com.au - Yahoo! Personals New people, new possibilities.
