I have an ssh process running on unix_bsd based server.
Normally to connect remotly to this server I use a putty
terminal (running on windows XP client).
Now I have the following problem:
when I open a client terminal connection (with a putty terminal)
the message login as: is normally displaied.
After I insert my login usermane followed from return key press.
I wait for password: message request but it isn't displayed.
Moreover after about 1 minute the putty terminal session is
automatically closed.
On server site the following message is displaied:
fatal: Timeout before authentication for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is client IP address.
Can someone help me to understand what' s happen?
Could be a hostname lookup failure.
I had a similiar problem long time back. If I remember correctly, adding the
WinXP client's hostname to /etc/hosts on the BSD machine fixed it.
