Connection getting lost after 5 minutes
Hi
I am connected to a unix server using putty. But if I remain idle for more than 5 mintues I get disconnected. Is there any solution for this? San

I'm assuming you are using SSH when you connect through putty. Do you have root access on this machine? If so, you can probably get rid of the idle timeout in your "sshd_config" file.
Without root access, you can set the KeepAlive option within Putty. This will send a null string of data to the server at a timed interval of your choosing. It'll stop the server from thinking you are idle. For Putty, it's the first option under the "Connection" settings.
