I'm not to up to date with Windows Mobile, but this is an issue were 
putty has put the certificate from the FreeBSD server on the black list 
because it thinks you told it that it was wrong. Try to remove putty 
from your PDA, remove any files etc it might have left behind and reinstall.

Hi Martin:

Thank you for your help.   I wasn't sure whether it was Putty or FreeBSD 
that did the blacklisting.  I will take your suggestion and see what 
happens.

Thanks!
