 It's likely your router or firewall's NAT timing out.  In puTTY, go to
 the settings and select the Connection top-level option.  There's a
 Sending of null packets to keep session active and Seconds between
 keepalives (0 to turn off).  Set it to something like 30 and it'll work
 fine.

yes, fixed

(but my command line SSH behind same router never drops off, just putty,
perhaps my command line ssh has better tolerance or better defaults)

[SLUG] putty dies when 'unattended'

2008-03-13 Thread Voytek Eymont

whenever I use putty, as soon as I do not do anything in it, say for 1 or
2 minutes, it drops connection, is there any setting to prevent it ?
