this is confusing message out of context but from what I remember: a) can you connect with ssh hostname b) with ssh IPaddress c) with putty & hostname d) with putty & IPaddress if yes to b and d, but not to a and c, then it's a DNS thing. if yes to a and b, but no to c or d, then it's a putty thing. -- Michael Bane Atmospheric Physics Group University of Manchester -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
