PuTTy Fatal Error - Network error: Software caused connection abort [SOLVED]

In order to prevent this error after some time of inactivity you can do the following:

1- Open Putty and go to "Connection".

2- Change the "Seconds between keepalives" to a number higher than zero. 120 should be good.

3- Now go to Session and save as "Default Settings"

4- Done! Now every time you launch a SSH session with Putty, these settings will be used.


Comments welcomed!
