A Little More Info Please
You have two Debian boxes. Are they the machines you are connecting to? I am assuming so since you mention Putty (which as far as I know is Windows only although it can run under WINE). What kind of machines are you making the connection from? If you are connecting with Putty under Windows, are you running an Xserver on the Windows box? What you wrote leads me to assume this:
Windows Box 1 (Running Putty) ----------> Debian Box 1
Windows Box 1 (Running Putty) ----------> Debian Box 2
Windows Box 1 (Running SSH.Com) ------> Debian Box 1
Windows Box 1 (Running SSH.Com) ------> Debian Box 2
Is that correct?

Hi,
We've been facing a strange issue. Clients use X11 forwarding via SSH on HP server and sometimes the same DISPLAY is assigned to two (maybe more) sessions. As a result, some users can't open their applications, and some have their windows redirected to somebody else.
It looks as if sshd... (1 Reply)
