Hello, I'm using TightVNC1.2.2 on WinME to connect to a TightVNC server on a remote sunbox via cygwin's OpenSSH_3.5p1 (on both sun and WinME). It works for anywhere from 10 minutes to about 2 hours, then everything freezes. The computer is totally unresponsive. I can bring up the task manager, but can't tab through the fields and buttons. Often, not even the 3-finger salute works.
The cygwin version is DLL version 1.3.15, Dll epoch 19. I am going through Sympatico's highspeed ADSL. I also have ZoneAlarm 3.1.395, Norton AV 2001, and Trojan Hunter Guard. Nothing else is running at the time of the crash. It also happens when the laptop is directly connected to the school LAN (no ADSL). I suspect it's ssh because it only started some time in the last week or so. Our ssh service (on the sun boxes) was itself undergoing some overhaul until about a week ago. Because the timing of the crash is unpredictable, this is hard to verify. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I realize that WinME is the worst possible OS, and I will soon spend the time to install something else, but I used this method of connection for almost a year without this problem. Thanks for any feedback.
