[ale] Putty

As I noted previously I am running PuTTY 0.60 from XP and connecting to
CentOS5 64 bit and RHEL5 64 bit servers with no issue.  I don't believe
the issue is 32 bit vs. 64 bit at all so doing as Jim suggested is
probably a good idea.   PuTTY 0.60 works fine for me to all sorts of
systems both with ssh and telnet.   (By the way make sure your
connection is set to use ssh and not telnet as PuTTY allows for both.)

So 32 bit XP putty v.6 pukes when connecting to 64 bit Centos.

The 32/64 bit nature is not passed by ssh so that's not the issue.

You need to turn up the verbosity (a lot) and see what is failing during
the connection process.

It never hurts to do the uninstall, reboot, install, reboot on the XP
system either. Also check the XP firewall to make sure it allows ssh
connections outbound at least.

I think you may be right about no 64 bit for Windows.  I am using
Windows XP and I upgraded to Putty version .0.6 and it still gives a
network error when I try to SSH into 64 bit CentOS.  Does anyone have
a recommendation?  What about Tunnelier?
