Red Hat / Fedora :: Timeout - Putty Going Inactive During A Session And The Job Failing
Jun 1, 2009
I am having issues with putty going inactive during a session and the job failing. I do not want to run nohup but would llike a korn shell script to keep putty alive.
I am trying to setup a putty session to putty from one Ubuntu machine to another. I know how to setup to connect to the machine from Windows and I am using the same settings for the one I am trying on the Ubuntu machine but it fails to connect. It fails immediately so I believe that putty is not able to find ssh. Is there some configuring that I need to do.
I'm using Kubuntu 9.10, my pppd version is 2.4.5 and pptp is 1.7.2 I'm trying to connect to the iPredator VPN service, but I keep running into problems with LCP. I've tried using knetworkmanager, nm-applet, kvpnc and plain old text-based configuration to no avail. Here's a snippet of pppd's output:
[Code].....
(I've got "defaultroute" in my /etc/ppp/peers/ipred config file.) Any ideas what could be causing this? Could it even be my router? It claims to support PPTP, but considering it claims a lot of other things which aren't true, I wouldn't be surprised if it was the culprit.
I am using putty to interact with Linux server. I have started a process using putty. The process is running and will take 5-6 hours. I want that process to keep running after I close the putty session. How can I keep that process alive after closing the putty session? I do not want to keep the computer ON all the time. Is there any way to do this?.
I'm talking specifically about three functions that I'm missing from Windows world and could not find them in any terminal program in Linux.
1. When you select text in putty window the text is being automatically copied to clipboard - very useful.
2. When I move the cursor to another putty window and right click inside it - the text is being automatically paste inside this window.
3.When I click on a putty window with session running I can say: "duplicate session" - so great.
Why o why can't I get those in any Linux terminal ?I could get this wit CrossOver but surprisingly the Windows version of putty does not work under linux as it supposed to?
How can we put ssh/putty session running even after in standby or disconnected mode.The idea is to have run a long running job from my notebook, which may take 6-8 hours, and if i come next day, there should be interrupt with it.
I have X Window running on one of RHEL Machine 192.168.2.2.I have logined through putty from remote Windows Machine 192.168.2.5. Now What I need to open the xterm (if I run the command through putty it should open xterm in the linux Machine).
I've installed the latest no machine rpms from nomachine. Status shows that nx server is running:
Code:
However, connecting from a windows client, I get the following:
Code:
So I get past authentication, but it then times out during session download. And here's the output from /var/log/messages on the server:
Code:
The only strange thing I've noticed (other than the error messages) is that the log messages for NXServer/NXnode have a date of Jan 5, yet the correct system time should be Jan 4 as seen in the first message.
Note this is happening on both my RHEL 4 and RHEL 5 machines.
I am downloading a big file on linux VPS, and I am connecting remotely via Putty to do it? Once I initiated the wget command to download the file, if I close the putty window, will wget continue to download the file in the background even though the session is technically closed?
I set the default os to boot as windows 7 with a timeout of 1 second. I thought that this would be enough time to switch os ubuntu when i need to, but I am unable to. How can i reset the timeout to 3 seconds? I also cannot view the ubuntu partition within windows because of ubuntu's file system.
I have been using FC10, it works well with wlan for sometime and goes inactive after some time and hence network goes unavailable. Even after few attempts to reconnect doesn't help. Rebooting helps in bringing it back temporarily.
I just installed Fedora 10. I entered my static network info in Network Configuration. When rebooting, the eth0 says Inactive. I've read many articles about this problem on earlier versions and tried many of the suggestion, but have not found a definite way of solving this. Is there a better way or a workaround to get this machine on the network?
tell me how to activate my wired NIC permanently?Also, how do I disable the 'work offline' check box in Firefox.At present I am required to action both before accessing internet.
Is there any option to hibernate desktop computer (on AC power) automatically after staying idol for say.. 30 minutes?In System>Preferences>Power Management there is a option to Put computer to sleep when inactive for minutes. But no option to automatic hibernate.
I first noticed this behaviour with Fedora 9, so I guess the install process is behaving as intended. However, when I install grub in the linux boot partition, SDA 6 with my current configuration, I would like my Vista partion to remain active. I use EasyBCD in Vista to control booting, as I have more Vista systems than linux systems. Currently, I have to boot the Vista install DVD after every Fedora install to do a start up repair on the hard drive. After the Fedora install, the Vista partition is marked inactive and needs to be marked active again. IMHO, if the linux boot loader is loaded in the linux boot partition, the currently active Windows partition should be left active. Unless I'm missing something, the MBR on the drive is going to be pointed at some other partition than the linux partition whenever grub is installed in the linux boot partition instead of the MBR. It's not that hard to activate the Windows partition, but after installing a few F12 alpha snaps and beta TCs and RCs, it's getting annoying. Any chance this can be changed?
I run LXDE with Openbox as WM on Fedora 15. When I watch videos with Totem or VLC, the monitor doesn't register any activity, and goes into power saving mode (goes blank) after a certain amount of time (about 10-15 mins). How can I prevent this from happening? (I just switched over to Fedora from Arch, using GDM and Openbox. I didn't have this problem on that installation, so it's probably not hardware related.)
I'm new to Fedora 10 and still a newbie with Linux in general. I installed F10 on an old PC I had....and the install went well..however, I'm having Internet Connectivity issues.
Here is what I did so far: Did an ifconfig command and I have the following: pan0 Link encap: Ethernet HWaddr D2:30:36:AF:61:95 inet6 addr: fe80::d030:36ff:feaf:6195/64 Scope: Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:30 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes: 0 (0.0 b) Tx bytes: 8676 (8.4 KiB)
When I go to the Network Configuration Panel I see the following: Status: Device: Nickname: Type: Inactive pan0 pan0 Ethernet
Tried to activate and it states Activating network device pan0, please wait... determining IP information for pan0.... A few minutes pass by then. It indicates it failed. Cannot activate network device pan0! I have disabled the Controlled by NetworkManger and enabled the Activate device when computer starts.
I am running fedora from the USB. My computer is Dell - inspirion. I tried to configure the wireless according to the instructions. I added new a device ...
I see the new device but it's written inactive. The Active/inactive buttons are disable (or not seen at all). How can i resolve/Active the wireless?
I just installed F15 on a laptop that previous had F12 working well. During install, it finds my wireless card and seems to set it up fine. The full install ran with the wireless active without any problem that I could see. Now, when I start up, I see Network Manager tells me that the wlan is active, but it doesn't show my specific network. If I click on the NM tray icon and open up the panel, my network is shown but it is not "active".
I can double click on it and it will become active - shows the little globe next to the antenna. This works fine for about 2 web pages worth and then FireFox 4 stops being able to find web pages. If I go back to the panel, double click on my wireless network (which looks like it is active already), and reactivate it, I can get the page I was looking for in FireFox, but within a couple of minutes it will stop.
Likewise with yum, while I'm installing software, I'll occasionally get errors like this: [URL]: [Errno 14] curl#6 - "Couldn't resolve host" If I reactivate my wireless network in the NM panel, it continues fine. Other computers/phones connected to this network seem to work fine. Is NM known to be problematic in F15?
I have b43 wireless. In network Configuration on system->administration the interface it appears as inactive it appers in hardware also as b43 associated to wlan0 but i cannot have access to any wireless network. What i have to do to put this b43 to work.
I am using RHEL 5.4 in vmware and its working fine I configured ssh in rhel and tried to login through Putty from host machine (windows xp sp3) am not able to login, so what should I do fo it frndz.
We changed ip's the other day and now ssh is not working. SSH/Putty was working fine before the ip change. Everything else is working fine on the machine. The sshd_config file has not been touched at all since I've been working on the machine.
var/log/messages shows this: Code: bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0 failed address already in use netstat -an shows that tcp is listening on 0.0.0.0:22 with no port conflicts.
I have a virtual dedicated server, running - Linux Red Hat Fidora core 6- Pentium 4, 3ghz
I'm attempting to use Putty to log in SSH, but I'm getting an error.
Saying the sever unexpectedly close network connection.
I don't know if this has anything to do with it. This is a new computer, that hasn't logged in using putty before. Also I'm on a home wireless network. It dosen't seem to be a firewall issue, the error message pops up, when the firewall is disabled.
And I just had Go Daddy do a reboot. Oh, and I think I might have entered my password incorrectly a few times, last night.
I remember the Go Daddy rep, saying that my IP address may be flagged, but that it would unfilter and unlock it self within an hour or so. It's been over 24 hrs.
Before the password issue, i was able to log in.. But i can't now.
Others can log in. So there unable to duplicate the problem.
I am not able to connect to server through putty, my collegue is able to connect to same server from his desktop through putty.
I am getting ssh session and after providing user id an password its stays still and no error message. firewall and se linux is disabled and also i checked tcpwrappers there is not restriction given.
I am trying to remotely access a linux machine to run Cadence from my laptop.I downloaded Putty and Xming/XLaunch.I run Putty, enable X11 forwarding, then sign into my host address.I am successfully able to access and navigate through my home directory, however once I try and run Cadence, I get the attached error.
when I try to connect via PuTTY from a windows machine I get " PuTTY Fatal error connection timed out. I try to do so via a router redirecting IPadr:86 to local adr:22 on the Linux machine.
I seems not to be a routing issue since the router is setup to redirect apparently correctly.
Well I have stopped iptables and selinux is disabled. The sshd deamon is running. I can logon with ssh locally "ssh webcamATlocal adr".
